Egypt's Minister of Electricity and Renewable Energy, Mahmoud Esmat, highlighted the alignment of a joint declaration of intent signed between Egypt and Bavaria with Egypt's national strategy for producing low-carbon hydrogen. The agreement focuses on enhancing cooperation in green hydrogen and liquefied natural gas between the two regions. The declaration targets various aspects of hydrogen trade, including identifying production capabilities, expanding logistics routes, and advancing technologies in hydrogen production with a focus on utilizing renewable energy sources. The initiative aims to foster research and development in hydrogen production chains and strengthen institutional ties through chambers of commerce and business organizations. The cooperation seeks to connect hydrogen producers in Egypt with technology providers in Bavaria and potential buyers in Germany. To facilitate the effective implementation of the agreement, a working group will be established to coordinate efforts, prepare proposals, and engage with relevant partners. The coordination of these efforts will be overseen by the Bavarian State Office at the German-Arab Chamber of Industry and Commerce in Cairo, with regular reviews planned to commence before the end of the year.
