Abstract

Global warming is one of the most important factors in unpredictable climatic changes and a challenging issue in the world. The MENA region is one of the hottest areas in the world, and most of its revenue is based on oil resources. The sultanate of Oman, as per Vision 2040, aims to increase the number of renewable energy plants to reduce their electrical energy dependence. At present, Oman produces 650 MW of electrical power using renewable energy sources, this may increase in the upcoming years. High energy density and transportability make hydrogen a suitable energy carrier compared to the existing fossil fuels. This paper discusses the various possible techniques to produce green hydrogen and a brief comparative study of these techniques for their feasibility in the regional scenario so that an effective usage of hydrogen sources and better energy management can be achieved in Oman. Hence, making the usage of green hydrogen as a renewable energy source more feasible and conventional in the upcoming years is in line with Vision 2040.
