Welcome to the alliance!
The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance aims at contributing to a socio-ecological transformation in cooperation with the private sector.
It was established in 2019 on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and is implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ).
What we do
The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance supports the market ramp-up of green hydrogen while contributing to a sustainable development of partner countries. It identifies the challenges of the market and develops solutions together with the private sector.
The activities of the Business Alliance focus on countries with considerable potential for the production of green hydrogen. Key criteria in this context include the potential for expanding renewables, the willingness of policymakers to develop a green hydrogen sector and already existing industrial infrastructure in cooperation with private companies. The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance is active in multiple partner countries such as Brazil, Morocco, Namibia and South Africa.
Our Fields of Action
Market Collaboration
The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance champions global collaboration to drive the sustainable ramp-up of the green hydrogen and PtX market. We connect key stakeholders worldwide, sharing knowledge and promoting strong partnerships for scalable projects.
We enhance the visibility of partners’ projects, innovations, and success stories supporting local value chains that also benefit partner countries in the Global South.
Join us in creating a sustainable energy future through a holistic collaboration approach, including partners from the private and the public sector.
Market Intelligence
The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance empowers its partners to make informed decisions for the implementation of green PtX projects on an industrial scale. We localise green PtX industries and support business endeavours of network partners in developing and emerging countries.
We identify market barriers and provide insights on the feasibility of these projects by offering independent market information, such as market trends and business case analyses. We also provide policy briefs.
Our free weekly press monitoring keeps our partners informed of the latest news in the green hydrogen sector.
Market Oriented Solutions
The Green Hydrogen Business Alliance is dedicated to improving framework conditions for green hydrogen and PtX projects in partner countries. Together with our network, we address market challenges and develop solutions that benefit all, the private sector as well as our local public partners.
The Business Alliance thus developed the H2Global funding mechanism that is now used by governments globally to fasten the ramp-up of PtX-markets.
The H2 Business Alliance also supported the design of KfW’s PtX Development Fund that provides financial support to develop green hydrogen value chains in developing and emerging economies.
