The Hydrogen Energy Center, opened on the basis of the Yagshygeldi Kakayev International University of Oil and Gas almost two months ago, began active work.
As reports the publication “Turkmenistan: Golden Age”, the creation of the Center was the result of steps taken by the state to promote energy diplomacy.
The main task of the Center is the training of high-level specialists and the establishment of international scientific cooperation in this field, the implementation of research work, the development and implementation of innovative scientific and educational programs in production in order to create and develop the hydrogen energy industry in Turkmenistan.
The activities of the new Center are aimed at implementing the tasks and action plan within the framework of the Roadmap for the development of international cooperation of Turkmenistan in the field of hydrogen energy for 2022-2023.
The first online meeting of representatives of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) with specialists from the Hydrogen Energy Center and students of an oil and gas university was held at the end of February.
The participants discussed the prospects for the development of hydrogen energy, the training of highly qualified specialists in this field and the expansion of international cooperation.
A Turkmen-Japanese conference, dedicated to the study of foreign experience in the field of hydrogen energy followed this.
The working group of the Center, and also the faculty and students of the university actively participated in the First UNIDO meeting on global cooperation in the field of industrial use of hydrogen energy in early April.
The meeting included issues of global cooperation development and exchange of experience in the field of “green” hydrogen production between the member states of the organization.
Further the MUNiG’s specialists participated in a conference on the topic “Development of a roadmap for the commercial development of nuclear-hydrogen energy for the development of the industry”, organized by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
An online conference to discuss the possibilities of Turkmen-Japanese cooperation in the field of hydrocarbon production and the production of hydrogen energy was organized by “Kawasaki Heavy Ind” on April 7-8.
The next event was a scientific and practical conference on the topic "The importance of the development of hydrogen energy in Turkmenistan", organized jointly by the training and practical center "Renewable Energy Sources" of the State Institute of Energy of Turkmenistan and the Hydrogen Energy Center of MUNiG.
All activities are aimed at a productive result of their implementation and practical benefits for solving the problems of developing hydrogen energy.
The specialists of the Center based on the study and analysis of world experience will develop and make proposals for the introduction of advanced innovative technologies for the production of hydrogen energy in Turkmenistan.
