Summary:Hydrogen (H2) plays an important role in the energy transition toward a zero-carbon economy, in which green H, could replace fossil fuels in the refining, petrochemical, fertilizer, steel, cement, electricity, and transportation sectors. More importantly, the deployment of green H2 strategies could ensure energy security and create an efficient way of using national resources. Vietnam has been considered as a country with abundant resources to produce green H2 but several limitations slow down the transition to a green H2 economy. This article reviews the progress and potential of green H2 production usingsolarand wind energy in Vietnam. The green H, is utilized as a feedstock in a number of major industries, and it could be the "missing link" in supplying large amounts of renewable energy to many sectors that struggle to decarbonize.
