摘要

Green hydrogen has become more prevalent as a fundamental element for decarbonizing energy sectors, particularly in countries with abundant renewable resources. This review paper aims to investigate and explore the current status of green hydrogen production initiatives and their future vision, considering the country’s remarkable advancements in renewable energy and its valuable location for exports. A comprehensive review of recent and ongoing projects on both local and global levels was presented, along with the renewable energy profile and water resources required for the electrolysis process. The study estimated the levelized cost of hydrogen per region, as well as the cost of desalinated seawater, and identified a suitable location in the kingdom based on renewable resources and land constraints, in line with recent memoranda of understanding by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. Jordan’s green hydrogen LCOH ranges between $6.5–7.6/kg H2, with desalinated water costs of $0.9/m3. The national strategy targets 0.5 Mt H2 export by 2035, primarily for ammonia production and achieving a cost of $2–3/kg H2 by 2050. A national certification scheme following EU carbon intensity standards (< 3.4 kg CO2/kg H2) is under preparation.
