Economic feasibility and environmental benefits of green hydrogen production in Southeast Asia using solar and wind energy
The global energy transition requires innovative solutions to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate issues. Green hydrogen provides a vital approach to reducing carbon emissions in high-energy industries. While many studies evaluate hydrogen viability in individual countries, a regional assessment for Southeast Asia is lacking. This study fills that gap by assessing the potential for green hydrogen production across eleven Southeast Asian countries, considering both photovoltaic and wind energy resources. By integrating climate data, energy models, and cost analyses, the study examines hydrogen yield, the levelized cost of hydrogen, and carbon dioxide reduction potential. The results reveal variations in renewable resource availability, with East Timor, Laos, and the Philippines having the best conditions for hydrogen production. Wind-powered electrolysis proves to be more economical than solar-based systems, with the Philippines exhibiting the most competitive levelized cost of hydrogen. The sensitivity analysis highlights the impact of degradation, discount rates, and the combined influence of capital, operation, and maintenance costs on production expenses. Additionally, enhancing electrolyzer efficiency presents a potential avenue for cost reduction. The findings underscore the need for strong policy frameworks, financial incentives, and infrastructure investments to support hydrogen adoption. With advancements in technology, policy, and investment, Southeast Asia could become a major green hydrogen supplier, enhance regional energy security, and contribute to global decarbonization goals.
