Reseña

This study identifies certification schemes applied in Europe for the production and import of green hydrogen and its derivatives (synfuels, methanol, ammonia, etc.) from green hydrogen exporting countries, such as Chile. Furthermore, the study identifies other certification schemes not specifically dedicated to hydrogen that could help to define sustainability criteria that should be considered in the processes of the value chain for the production and export of green hydrogen, such as social, economic, and environmental aspects. Sustainability certification of hydrogen and derivatives is relevant to several of the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDG), notably affordable clean energy (7) and climate action (13), but also SDGs 8, 9, 10, 12 and 14.
