▪ This includes use cases where no alternative solutions are on the horizons and
industries that already use hydrogen today!
▪ Chemical sector:
▪ Fertilizer production
▪ Industrial sector:
▪ These low hanging fruits (with no real alternatives) should be the focus of
any national clean hydrogen strategy!
High RISK Sector Should Not be The Priority in the First Years
Source: IE
Theoretical hydrogen demand in Vietnam
▪ This would need to come on top of the renewable energy capacity required for
direct electrification/power generation!
▪ Low influx from low-cost solar PV and wind energy simultaneously over several
weeks and months, meaning that cheaper battery storage is not an option
▪ Serve as backup power plants (only used in emergency situations or not at all)
▪ Don’t assume to run “ammonia fired coal plant” in the same way as you
run coal plants today!
Ammonia Co-Firing in the Electricity Sector in a High Risk
Investment
▪ Ammonia co-firing in the electricity sector is not (yet) a proven solution:
▪ There are cost related challenges (high fuel costs, cost for retrofitting, etc.)
▪ Contracts-for-differences
▪ Carbon pricing
▪ Integrated planning of gas and electricity grid - Financing the national hydrogen grid
