Abstract :
Energy transitions can have huge geopolitical consequences and geopolitics influences transitions. Geopolitics in the context of a hydrogen transition is not researched as of yet and the purpose of this paper is to construct a framework for analyzing this issue. The framework uses economic geography, political geography and political economy with institutional economics as binding theory.
