Answer and explanation

Correct answer: D. Hydrogen Oman (Hydrom)

  1. Step 1: Hydrom (Hydrogen Oman SPC), a subsidiary of Energy Development Oman (EDO), is the central master planner for Oman's green hydrogen economy.
  2. Step 2: It manages land allocations, competitive auctions, and common infrastructure corridors in Duqm and Dhofar to achieve Oman's target of producing 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen by 2030.
Answer
Hydrogen Oman (Hydrom).
Why not the others: 'Oman Green Power' is a generic descriptive term; 'Solar Oman Energy' is not the national hydrogen entity; 'Clean Fuels Authority' is fictional.
