South Korea will strengthen cooperation with the United Arab Emirates in major technologies related to the hydrogen economy, President Moon Jae-in said Sunday.
The president, who is in Dubai for a three-day visit as part of his trip to the Middle East, made the remark at a business forum attended by Suhail bin Mohammed Al Mazrouei, Minister of Energy and Infrastructure of the UAE.
“Korea and the UAE will expand energy cooperation into the hydrogen sector, a core energy resource in the age of carbon neutrality,“ Moon said.
Moon noted Korea’s technologies in hydrogen-powered cars, hydrogen fueling stations and fuel cells could create synergy with the UAE, which has the potential to produce a so-called blue hydrogen.

Representatives from the government and South Korean firms included Minister of Trade, Industry and Energy Moon Sung-wook, Korea National Oil Corporation CEO Kim Dong-dub, the Korea International Trade Association Chairman Koo Ja-yeol, Hyundai Motor CEO Gong Young-woon, SK Gas CEO Yun Byeong-seok, GS Energy CEO Huh Yong-soo and Doosan Fuel Cell CEO Chung Hyung-rak.
