Abstract

The paper focuses on the opportunity to produce green hydrogen in Algeria as part of a sustainable energy transition while exploring the associated opportunities and challenges. The research uses a descriptive-analytical approach to assess the potential for Algeria to diversify its energy portfolio. The results revealed Algeria's strategic advantage is evident in its existing oil and gas infrastructure, including pipelines and liquefied gas stations, as well as its ample renewable energy resources, particularly solar and wind power. Additionally, its closeness to European markets further enhances its advantageous position. Algeria's advantageous circumstances enable a substantial and dependable contribution to local and global energy needs as a sustainable and stable source of green hydrogen. The study discusses three main areas that affect Algeria's involvement in the green hydrogen market: operational constraints related to cost reduction in production, investment problems in renewable energy sources, and financial obstacles related to acquiring enough funding.
