This thesis examines the key determinants that enable hydrogen to become a viable solution in the energy transition, with a comparative analysis of the USA, Germany, and Türkiye. While the existing literature predominantly highlights technological innovation, financial investment and national policy frameworks, this study argues that such efforts are insufficient without international relations and diplomatic solutions. Grounded in neoliberal institutionalist theory, the research shows that resolving interstate conflicts and establishing cooperative international mechanisms are essential for enabling hydrogen trade, technology transfer and cross-border infrastructure deployment. Through an analysis of national hydrogen strategies, value chain investments and diplomatic engagements, this thesis concludes that clean hydrogen can only become a scalable and sustainable energy solution through the international cooperations.
