Spearheaded by the Centro de Investigation Científica y Tecnológica de la Minería (CICITEM) and the Chilean Production Development Corporation (CORFO), this breakthrough project is generating XXX kg of hydrogen daily using only fog and solar power, revolutionizing clean energy production. The Green Hydrogen Mobile Pilot Plant (P3H2V) is the star of this innovation. By capturing water vapor from coastal fog with advanced mesh nets and powering electrolysis with the Atacama’s intense solar energy up to XXXXX kWh/m² annually it eliminates the need for scarce liquid water in a region that sees less than X mm of rain yearly. The mobile setup, complete with solar panels, electrolyzers, fuel cells, and hydrogen storage, operates seamlessly across the desert’s varied terrains, from sea level to high plateaus. “This is a historic moment for clean energy,” said Dr. Maria Gonzalez of CICITEM. “We’re turning fog and sunlight into hydrogen, proving sustainability is possible even in the harshest environments.” This clean hydrogen is poised to power Chile’s mining sector, which drives XX% of global copper and XX% of lithium carbonate production. Aligned with Chile’s National Green Hydrogen Strategy, the project aims to make the country a global hydrogen leader by 2035, targeting production costs as low as $XXXX per kg by 2030. By bypassing traditional water-heavy electrolysis, it also protects the Atacama’s scarce groundwater, addressing critical environmental concerns. The plant’s mobility allows it to adapt to diverse desert conditions, delivering a consistent 2.0–2.5 kg of hydrogen daily. Future plans include scaling up for applications like green ammonia for fertilizers. While some local communities, including the Lickanantay Indigenous Peoples, have voiced concerns about the environmental impact of large-scale projects, CICITEM and CORFO are dedicated to collaborative, eco-friendly solutions. The world is watching! With support from the World Bank and the UK, Chile’s innovation is a model for arid regions everywhere. “This is sustainability at its best,” said a World Bank official.
