The availability of these three resources has been depicted with maps showing them per cantons in Togo, thus, by using the datasets from ESA Biomass Climate Change Initiative, the global solar atlas and the global wind atlas. The conversions rates used were: for solar resource, 3% of land was allocated for the analysis after removing the exclusions with a conversion rate of 52.5 kWh/kg of hydrogen;for biomass hydrogen, the conversion rate of 13.4 kg BS/kg H<sub>2</sub> was assumed. Wind resources at 50 m above ground were not sufficient to evaluate the potential as it is lower than class 3 winds. QGIS version 3.6.4 and R version 4.0.4 were used. Results showed that biomass is the leading resource for producing green hydrogen from renewable energy resources;with good impact in these two cantons: Bassar, Gobe/ Eketo/Gbadi N’Kugna. However, this resource is still decreasing and in some cantons it is null.展开更多
