Hon. Collins Adomako-Mensah, Deputy Energy Minister

Hon. Collins Adomako-Mensah, representing the Hon. Energy Minister Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, delivered a keynote address at a pivotal symposium on the adoption of green hydrogen in Ghana.

The event, themed “The Future of Green Hydrogen in Sub-Saharan Africa: The Role of Communication, Technology, and Higher Educational Institutions,” took place at the Florence Onny Auditorium, Ghana Communication Technology University (GCTU), Tesano-Accra.

In his address, Hon. Adomako-Mensah underscored the transformative potential of green hydrogen in Africa’s renewable energy landscape. Hon. Adomako-Mensah highlighted its critical role in reducing emissions and advancing sustainable energy solutions across the continent.

Hon. Adomako-Mensah stated, “Green hydrogen presents a unique opportunity for Africa to leapfrog traditional energy sources and position itself as a leader in renewable energy innovation.”

The Deputy Minister for Energy again emphasized Ghana’s strategic framework and commitment to modern renewable energy, aiming to achieve a 10% installed capacity of modern renewables by 2030. This commitment is exemplified by ongoing projects such as the 166MW installed solar capacity and the forthcoming 200MW solar park by the Bui Power Authority.

Furthermore, Hon. Adomako-Mensah introduced Ghana’s ambitious Energy Transition Framework, targeting net-zero emissions by 2070. The framework outlines an envisioned installed power capacity of 83 gigawatts, with 21 gigawatts derived from renewable energy sources, essential to achieving the net-zero goal.

“Within the framework of Ghana’s energy transition, more than 70% of road vehicles are expected to run on electricity and hydrogen as fuel by 2045, with all road and rail mobilities anticipated to run on electricity and hydrogen by 2070.”

“Pursuant to this kind of energy mix for Ghana, it is imperative to broaden the conversation on hydrogen as a fuel for the emerging hydrogen industry.”

Hon. Collins Adomako-Mensah, Deputy Energy Minister

Hon. Adomako-Mensah also praised the P-Learn Centre at GCTU for its pioneering research in green hydrogen technology. He called for continued innovation and collaboration, highlighting the importance of communication, technology, and higher educational institutions in driving the green hydrogen agenda.

The Ghanaian government is actively supporting research and development (R&D) in green hydrogen technology through several strategic initiatives aimed at promoting innovation, collaboration, and sustainability.

The government has collaborated with local universities, research institutions, and international partners to fund joint research projects focusing on green hydrogen technology. These collaborations aim to leverage expertise and resources to accelerate breakthroughs in the field.

“We must continue to innovate and collaborate for a greener tomorrow,” Hon. Adomako-Mensah urged, acknowledging the vital role that academia and research institutions play in developing and disseminating green hydrogen technologies.

The Minister highlighted the government’s commitment to building the capacity of local scientists, engineers, and technicians in green hydrogen technology. This includes training programs, workshops, and internships designed to equip the next generation of professionals with the skills needed to contribute to the green hydrogen sector.

“The government has been instrumental in creating a favorable policy environment for green hydrogen R&D. This includes providing tax incentives, subsidies, and grants for research activities related to green hydrogen production, storage, and utilization.”

Hon. Collins Adomako-Mensah, Deputy Energy Minister

Through these initiatives, the Ghanaian government is working to advance green hydrogen technology, positioning Ghana as a leader in sustainable energy innovation in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The symposium brought together experts, academics, policymakers, and industry stakeholders to discuss the future of green hydrogen in Sub-Saharan Africa. The event served as a platform for exchanging ideas and forging partnerships aimed at accelerating the adoption of green hydrogen technologies in the region.

As Ghana strides towards a sustainable energy future, the government’s commitment to green hydrogen and renewable energy development remains steadfast, promising a significant impact on the nation’s energy landscape and its overall environmental goals.
