HANOI: Despite the government’s recognition of hydrogen energy’s potential and the launch of a national strategy, experts say the adoption of hydrogen in Vietnam remains limited.
According to the Industry and Trade Ministry (MoIT), the majority of domestic hydrogen demand in Vietnam is sourced from fertiliser factories, which account for approximately 316,000 tonnes per year, as well as the Dung Quat oil refinery (39,000 tonnes) and the Nghi Son oil refinery and petrochemical complex (139,000 tonnes).
