KYIV. Nov 8 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The final version of Ukraine’s Hydrogen Strategy should be prepared next spring, the press service of the Ministry of Energy said following a meeting of the working group on developing the strategy.

The Ministry of Energy noted that the document will take into account all stages of the development of hydrogen energy in Ukraine: production, transportation and storage of hydrogen – and will include an analysis of the resource potential for hydrogen production.
"When developing a hydrogen strategy, it is very important to exchange views, knowledge and research results in this innovative area. We must analyze the potential of our state and choose the most effective ways to implement it. At the next stage of work on the strategy, we will study the initial forecast for the development of demand in Ukraine and the first consumers of hydrogen," Deputy Energy Minister Yulia Pidkomorna is cited in the message.
The meeting of the working group was held with the participation of experts from the Ministry of Energy, specialists from the USAID Energy Security Project, the State Agency on Energy Efficiency and Energy Saving, industry experts, representatives of profile associations and research organizations.

The writing of the strategy itself will begin after the proposals of all interested parties have been worked out," the deputy minister said.
