The UAE has announced a revised national hydrogen strategy that accelerates its 2031 production targets, with government officials confirming plans to deliver 1.4 million tonnes of low-carbon hydrogen annually — up from the previously stated 1 million tonne figure. The update follows rapid progress at pilot facilities and growing demand from European and Asian offtake partners.
Central to the revised strategy is a significant increase in electrolyser procurement, with the government backing a domestic manufacturing supply chain to reduce import dependence. The initiative builds on the UAE’s existing advantage as one of the lowest-cost producers of renewable electricity globally, with solar projects in Abu Dhabi and Dubai continuing to set world benchmark prices.
For property owners and businesses operating off-grid or in areas with unreliable grid infrastructure, the accelerated national strategy signals a maturing supply chain for green hydrogen storage systems. As electrolyser capacity scales nationally, the cost of GH2S installations is expected to fall steadily over the next three to five years.
Ultra Energy continues to monitor procurement timelines and supplier developments closely, ensuring that the systems it evaluates and installs reflect the most cost-effective and technically proven equipment available on the international market.
