South Africa will use its abundant platinum deposits to start making hydrogen fuel cells to provide clean energy

After over a decade of research and development around hydrogen fuel and lithium battery storage technologies, President Cyril Ramaphosa says South Africa is now ready to manufacture and commercialise hydrogen fuels technology.

“Hydrogen and fuel cell technologies, which use platinum, offer an alternative source of clean electricity, while hydrogen allows for energy to be stored and delivered in a usable form,” he said.

Which is great news as the demand will be high both within SA and from outside.
