CHIETA CONFIRMS COMMITMENT TO THE GREEN HYDROGEN ECONOMY WITH COMPREHENSIVE STUDY FOCUSING ON SKILLS DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH

With projects such as a just lately accomplished hydrogen production proof of idea (PoC) initiative in Vredendal in the Western Cape, it’s safe to say that South Africa is properly on its approach to producing green hydrogen as part of its renewable energy posture.
To เกจวัดแรงดันน้ำประปา , the Chemical Industries Education and Training Authority (CHIETA) has embarked on an 18-month analysis challenge: A comprehensive research of hydrogen energy in SA which will help us in our efforts to help the Hydrogen Economy, identifying growth areas for abilities and financial development.
The research, which is already underway, is being carried out in partnership with research teams and is geared toward not solely our personal skills development targets but additionally government and companies of all sizes within the chemical industries.
A complete study of hydrogen power will focus on:
The assortment and analysis of documents, baseline information, and a literature review on the state of the Hydrogen Economy in South Africa.
The manufacturing of a green hydrogen research report that responds to the project’s objectives.
We believe the project’s outcomes and proposals is not going to solely assist authorities, through the Department of Science and Innovation (DSI) and chemical sector corporations, but additionally support the country’s Economic Reconstruction and Recovery Plan (ERRP).
Furthermore, we are working on a Green Hydrogen Skills Plan for our petrochemicals sub-sector. This will permit us to determine the top-10 expertise in the green hydrogen financial system and close the hydrogen skills hole by ensuring that talent is regionally produced.
It’s additionally encouraging to notice that one of our member firms, Sasol, is already enjoying a quantity one position in the green hydrogen economy through its analysis partnership with the DSI and the Northern Cape Economic Development and Investment Promotion Agency (NCEDA). CHIETA will soon be collaborating with NCEDA to ensure a well-coordinated and shared response to abilities planning for the green hydrogen economy.
The feasibility research for the production of green hydrogen within the Namakwa Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is being carried out at Boegoebaai, a port located within the native municipality of Richtersveld. As our greatest member company and largest abilities levy contributor, Sasol hopes to establish the port as a world centre for green hydrogen manufacturing.
Through initiatives and initiatives corresponding to Sasol’s Boegoebaai analysis, a roadmap is being crafted that can stand the chemical trade in good stead and position the country as a global chief within the production of green hydrogen power.
CHIETA will also be actively pursuing a green hydrogen analysis chair position in collaboration with public establishments to advance excellence and innovation in green hydrogen for the future improvement of scarce skills. We shall be investing more than R 5 million into the CHIETA Green Hydrogen Research Chair as a half of our increasing funding into analysis and improvement.
As the chemical business, we’ve a big position to play in what is undoubtedly the subsequent step within the evolution of renewable vitality, not solely the continent, but across the globe.
