Green hydrogen production potential in West Africa – Case of Niger
Downloadable (with restrictions)! Niger offers the possibility of producing green hydrogen due to its high solar energy potential. Due to the still growing domestic oil and coal industry, the use of green hydrogen in the country currently seems unlikely at the higher costs of hydrogen as an energy vector. However, the export of green hydrogen to industrialized countries could be an

6 FAQs about [Niger caes energy]
What is the energy potential of Niger?
Niger has significant energy potential, rich and varied, that is weakly exploited. It consists of biomass (firewood and agricultural residues, the main source used by households for cooking), uranium, mineral coal, oil, natural gas, hydroelectricity and solar energy.
How is energy used in Niger?
Total energy supply (TES) includes all the energy produced in or imported to a country, minus that which is exported or stored. It represents all the energy required to supply end users in the country.
Is Niger a member of ECOWAS?
Niger is a member of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). Every member of this organization had adopted its renewable energy policy (National Energy Action Plan Renewables (PANER)) under the guidance of Regional Center for Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency (ECREEE) [ 53 ].
Can Germany decarbonize domestic energy supply in Niger?
The potential import of green hydrogen represents an option for Germany and other European countries to decarbonize domestic energy supply. Currently there are no known projects for the electrolytic production of hydrogen in Niger. In this work, potential hydrogen demand across electricity and transport sectors is forecasted until 2040.
Why is access to energy a problem in Niger?
Despite this rich potential, access to energy is still a challenge for the authorities. Final energy consumption in Niger is estimated at 0.15 toe per capita, one of the lowest in the world. The weakness of this value is mainly due to limited access of Niger’s households to modern energy.
Does Niger have good solar hydrogen production potential?
The results are justified as solid oxide electrolysis has the least energy demand to produce a kilogram of hydrogen and PEM has the highest. Hence, this study establishes the fact that Niger has good solar hydrogen production potential.
