Qatar’s energy mix is almost entirely dominated by natural gas, which powers nearly all of its electricity generation and industrial activity. While the country is a global leader in fossil fuel production, it has recently begun a rapid expansion into solar energy to meet its National Vision 2030 sustainability goals.

Qatar is advancing green hydrogen through pilot projects like Shell’s HyPEC initiative, which produces hydrogen from wastewater and solar, supporting Qatar Vision 2030. While focusing on blue ammonia for the immediate future (1.2 million tons/year plant by 2026), the country is positioning itself for a long-term transition to green energy.

As of February 2026, there is no information indicating that Qatar is producing green hydrogen by electrolysis of seawater.
