Vietnam promotes green hydrogen investment in Europe
Vietnam is seeking to integrate into the European green hydrogen value chain by showcasing its potential at the European Hydrogen Week 2026 in Brussels. For the first time, the country has established its own dedicated exhibition booth to attract international investors.
Vietnam possesses offshore wind potential exceeding 600 GW, one of the largest in Southeast Asia, supported by a coastline of over 3,000 km. The nation has set production targets of 100,000–500,000 tonnes of hydrogen annually by 2030, increasing to 10–20 million tonnes by 2050. These goals align with the country’s net-zero commitments and the European Green Deal.
Investment priorities identified by the Vietnam Trade Office include renewable hydrogen production, storage and transport infrastructure, industrial decarbonization, and hydrogen applications in sectors such as steel, chemicals, and heavy transport. This initiative follows recent diplomatic efforts, including a visit by President To Lam to Belgium, aimed at strengthening cooperation in sustainable economic development and high technology.
