Green Hydrogen Revolution: How the Global South Powers the Energy Transition

Most of the article’s quantitative claims (53 Mt of hydrogen derivatives trade by 2050; global H2 demand rising from 87 Mt in 2020 to ~613 Mt by 2050 under a 1.5°C pathway; USD 2.49 trillion cumulative infrastructure investment to 2050; >50 national hydrogen strategies; Global South export potential in ammonia, e‑methanol, and DRI) align with scenarios and analyses published by IRENA and other reputable energy bodies. However, the article does not provide direct citations, some numbers are scenario-dependent (not forecasts), and certain statements are framed as definitive outcomes rather than modeled potentials, which requires qualification. No recent event claims are involved; content is medium-term/2050-oriented and thus older than two weeks in news terms.
