Large scale, export-oriented (green) hydrogen production on the African continent is encouraging a model of development in African countries that is perpetuating the extractivist legacy of the past. It is not welfare promoting but results in export-oriented economies that remove and transport commodities as quickly as possible to meet global demands. This is often accompanied by pollution and exploitation that are unfairly burdening on African people.
