EDITOR’S LETTER

Dear Reader,

With July widely considered the hottest month on record, climate change has offered humanity a bitter reminder of its presence this summer with extreme temperatures causing difficult challenges on a global scale. Hydrogen has become a fundamental source of both energy and hope as the industry pushes to drive growth while remaining committed to its decarbonization objectives.

We have chosen to tackle hydrogen as the theme for August’s issue not only because it is a rich and promising source of renewable energy, but also since it is a fundamental part of the diverse energy mix that will guarantee the continued growth of the global energy industry and the prosperity of humanity at large.

The Overview and Industry Insight sections tackle local efforts on the ground and trends in the green hydrogen industry in Egypt, a field that will strengthen the country’s ability to decarbonize and attract investments to its economy. The Energy Economics section discusses the economic feasibility of green hydrogen on a global scale, while our Technology section offers an insightful perspective on the use of plasma technology to enhance the sustainability of hydrogen production.

The main message of this issue is that the energy transition is not just about energy. It is about synergy. The synergy of all types of energy within the planet’s diverse energy mix is what will create a better tomorrow for all of us.

Wishing our loyal audience a good read!
