| Abstract | ||
| Amidst the urgent global energy transition, this study illuminates Egypt's pivotal emergence as a leader in green hydrogen, leveraging its unparalleled renewable energy potential to forge a sustainable future. We demonstrate the compelling techno-economic feasibility of integrated PV-Wind systems, achieving up to 36.71% efficiency and an annual hydrogen yield of 216 tons, alongside significant CO2 emission reductions. Strategic multinational alliances, exemplified by the Egypt Green Hydrogen project, are analyzed as powerful models for public-private partnerships, aligning commercial objectives with national development agendas like Egypt Vision 2030 to drive sustainable industrialization. Economically, Egypt's projected hydrogen demand of 6.0 million tons by 2050, underpinned by a competitive Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH) of approximately $4.5/kg, underscores its formidable market potential. Crucially, the inherent challenge of water scarcity, with large-scale production potentially requiring 0.9 billion cubic meters annually, is met with the innovative proposal of renewable-powered seawater desalination. This comprehensive analysis positions green hydrogen not merely as a versatile energy carrier, but as Egypt's strategic keystone for decarbonization and energy security, offering a robust blueprint for nations worldwide striving towards a net-zero economy. | ||
