%X <span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">Potential of green hydrogen producing from biomass, solar and wind in
Togo has been performed. 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% </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">of land was allocated for the analysis after
removing the exclusions with a</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> conversion rate of 52.5 kWh/kg of
hydrogen; for biomass hydrogen, the conversion rate of 13.4 kg BS/kg H</span><sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">2</span></sub><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\"> 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/</span><span style=\"font-family:;\" \"=\"\"> </span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">Eketo/Gbadi N</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">กฏ</span><span style=\"font-family:Verdana;\">Kugna.
However, this resource is still decreasing and in some cantons it is null.</span>
