MUSCAT : The lab aims to accelerate Oman’s progress towards its 2030 green hydrogen production targets by assessing the readiness of key sectors and developing a strategic roadmap.
In his opening address, H.E. Eng. Salim Al Aufi, Minister of Energy and Minerals, emphasized the importance of infrastructure readiness for Oman’s green hydrogen sector. He highlighted the need for a strong and coordinated approach to leverage natural resources, enhance local capabilities, and foster global partnerships.
