Oman is set to make significant strides in the green hydrogen sector, with the anticipation of the first Final Investment Decision (FID) for green hydrogen projects by 2026-27. Over the past two years, eight consortiums have secured land blocks in central and southern Oman to invest in large-scale green hydrogen schemes. The collective aim is to produce at least 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen by 2030, supporting the country's transition to a low-carbon energy future. Minister of Energy and Minerals, Eng Salim bin Nasser al Aufi, expressed optimism about Oman's green hydrogen journey during the 'Together We Progress' forum. The government is also focusing on renewable energy, with solar projects contributing significantly to electricity consumption. Additionally, upcoming wind-powered Independent Power Projects (IPPs) will further strengthen Oman's renewable energy capacity. In the minerals sector, a new investment strategy is in place, allowing for longer concession periods and successful mineral export operations. The policy changes have led to the export of copper concentrate for the first time in years, attracting both local and international investment interest.
