This paper deals with the national competitiveness of hydrogen energy. The effectiveness of investments for hydrogen energy R&D and constructions of hydrogen energy infrastructures can be evaluated by the national competitiveness of hydrogen energy, and it is evaluated by an AHP(analytic hierarchy process) method. The evaluation indices of the national competitiveness are selected as the technical level, the number of researchers, the investments for R&D, and the infrastructure of hydrogen energy. Similarly, the technical level is divided into the number of published papers, the number of foreign patents, and the number of published proceeding papers. The evaluation indices of the technical level and the number of researchers were investigated by database searches. It appears that South Korea locates the sixth position in the world. The results of our study suggest that South Korea is relatively competitive in the technical level and the number of researchers. However, our country needs the long-term and well-focused R&D, and the expansion of infrastructures to enhance the national competitiveness of hydrogen energy in the future.

This study compares and analyzes the national competitiveness in IP finance using the diamond model. The main findings of our analysis are as follows. First, assuming Korea's competitiveness in IP finance to be 1, USA with 1.63 has the highest competitiveness of all countries compared, and Israel is 1.49 followed by Japan with 1.37. Second, Korea and other countries compared show large differences in the areas of demand conditions, strategic structure, and competition. Third, Korea is inferior compared to other countries considered in terms of the factors including the protection of investors and IPR, and government policies. Since most of the factors in which Korea shows inferiority can be managed by public policies, to strengthen the competitiveness of IP finance, the government's active support to build industrial foundation are required.
