In an exciting development for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) members, Peru’s Alternate Senior Official to APEC, Victor Muñoz, has announced that a detailed roadmap to promote the utilization of low-emission hydrogen, particularly green hydrogen, will be finalized by August this year.
This initiative aims to advance the development and adoption of hydrogen as a clean energy source within the APEC region.
Through the roadmap, stakeholders intend to strategically propel the use of green hydrogen, which has shown great potential in reducing carbon emissions and fostering sustainable energy practices.
The roadmap is expected to outline key strategies, policies, and collaborative efforts that member countries can undertake to facilitate the integration of hydrogen technologies into their energy systems effectively.
It is crucial for addressing climate change challenges and accelerating the transition to a greener and more sustainable energy future in the region.
Victor Muñoz emphasized that the approval of this roadmap by Energy Ministers will play a pivotal role in driving the collective efforts towards realizing the full potential of low-emission hydrogen within APEC economies.
The roadmap’s comprehensive framework and actionable goals will pave the way for enhanced cooperation and coordination among member states in harnessing the benefits of green hydrogen.
As anticipation builds for the roadmap’s completion in August, stakeholders are optimistic about the positive impact it will have on shaping the energy landscape and fostering environmental responsibility within the APEC community.
The commitment to promoting green hydrogen underscores APEC Peru 2024’s dedication to advancing innovative and sustainable energy solutions for a brighter future.
