=====Key Insights=====
The Global Hydrogen Review 2024 by the International Energy Agency (IEA) provides an overview of the current state of hydrogen production and demand worldwide, focusing on low-emissions hydrogen. In 2023, global hydrogen demand reached 97 million tonnes (Mt), a 2.5% increase from 2022, primarily driven by traditional sectors such as refining and chemicals. However, low-emissions hydrogen production remains minimal, accounting for less than 1 Mt. The report emphasizes the potential for low-emissions hydrogen to reach 49 Mt by 2030, driven by announced projects, particularly in electrolysis. The report also highlights the importance of infrastructure development, investment, and regulatory clarity to facilitate the growth of the hydrogen sector. Special attention is given to Latin America, which has the potential to become a major player in low-emissions hydrogen production due to its abundant renewable resources. The report concludes that while progress is being made, significant challenges remain in scaling up production, creating demand, and developing necessary infrastructure.  \\
