Impact of Green Hydrogen on Climate Change in Peru: An Analysis of Perception, Policies, and Cooperation

Abstract

This research analyzed the impact of green hydrogen (GH) on the dynamics of combating climate change (CC) in Peru for the year 2024, contributing to Sustainable Development Goal 7, focused on affordable and clean energy. The study, quantitative and non-experimental in nature, used a cross-sectional design and focused on a sample composed of public and private sector officials, energy experts, and academics, evaluating their perception and knowledge about GH and its application in climate policies. The data collection instrument showed good internal consistency with a Cronbach’s alpha value of 0.793. The results revealed that although the adoption of GH is in its early stages, it is already considered a vital component in national CC mitigation strategies. A medium positive correlation was identified using the Spearman coefficient (0.418) between GH usage and the effectiveness of mitigation policies, as well as its capacity to influence public awareness and promote interinstitutional cooperation. Furthermore, it was concluded that the success of GH largely depends on the strengthening of regulatory frameworks, investment in infrastructure, and the promotion of strategic alliances to facilitate its integration into the national energy matrix. These findings highlight the importance of continuing to develop public policies that promote the use of GH, ensuring its sustainability and effectiveness in the fight against climate change in Peru.
