Abstract

The use of green hydrogen (GH2) as an energy source is considered essential for decarbonizing the world energy matrix. It is a central element of the investment plans announced by many countries toward carbon neutrality. Brazil occupies a privileged position since the national energy matrix is composed of about 85% of renewable energy, mainly hydroelectric, in addition to the growing presence of wind, solar, and biomass energy, combined with an interconnected transmission system and the availability of potable water. However, there are still many challenges for the insertion of this renewable energy source in the Brazilian electrical matrix, including the storage of GH2. In this context, the present article aims to evaluate the storage potential of GH2 in the State of Bahia, analyzing the identity of 27 territories at the State.
