Green hydrogen has been identified as a modern source of energy that can significantly improve the socio-economic development of the African continent towards improved energy security. Green hydrogen production is expected to foster economic growth, contribute to more environmental sustainability and the reduction of the use of carbon. However, in order to achieve this, an effective regulatory framework plays a key role in governing and monitoring green hydrogen production, transportation, trade and investment. Given this, the overarching aim of this paper is to critically and comparatively analyse Namibia’s current renewable energy regulatory framework in support of green hydrogen and as a new and sustainable source of renewable energy in Namibia. This paper is based on the forthcoming publication Ruppel, OC and Katoole, MS (2023) 'Promoting sustainable development through renewable energy: A regulatory framework for green hydrogen production in Namibia' (Windhoek, Hanns Seidel Foundation Namibia). Keywords: Namibia, Regulation, Renewable Energy, Sustainable Development, Comparative Law.
