Developing green hydrogen export capacity at the ports of Saldanha Bay and Ngqura would have decarbonisation spinoffs for nearby hard-to-abate sectors, a new Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) study shows. Produced as a follow-up to an earlier research report that assessed whether South Africa could be competitive in producing green hydrogen and derivative products for export to Europe and Japan, the new study homes in on the domestic offtake prospects at the two ports identified in the initial study as potential export hubs.
