Colombia has been one of the fastest developing countries in its hydrogen ecosystem, and the Caribbean region has been prioritized as a strategic hub due to its potential in terms of wind and solar energy. Within this region, Cartagena stands out as a key city as it has significant hydrogen consumption in its industrial ecosystem, where a refinery and other industries that use hydrogen and its derivatives are located.

In addition, Cartagena's strategic location facilitates the export of hydrogen and its derivatives to regions that import these fuels and clean inputs. This positions the city as an important location for hydrogen development in the region.
