Algeria's Green Steel Revolution: Sonatrach and Tosyali's Hydrogen Partnership
Key Ideas
  • Sonatrach and Tosyali have signed an MOU to explore the feasibility of producing green hydrogen in Algeria for green steel production.
  • Algeria's national hydrogen strategy aims to reduce gas consumption and decrease greenhouse gas emissions, aligning with the partnership's goals.
  • The collaboration plans to supply Europe with 10% of its clean hydrogen needs by 2040, with potential transportation via a pipeline connected to Italy.
  • Sonatrach's commitment to renewable energy, green hydrogen, and carbon capture projects in Algeria further solidifies the country's sustainable energy initiatives.
Sonatrach and Tosyali have entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to investigate the feasibility of producing green hydrogen in Algeria. This hydrogen will contribute to the development of green steel at Tosyali's Iron Steel Industry Algeria SPA complex. The partnership aligns with Algeria's national hydrogen strategy, focusing on reducing gas consumption and cutting greenhouse gas emissions. Aiming for sustainability, the collaboration intends to provide Europe with 10% of its clean hydrogen needs by 2040. Additionally, a hydrogen pipeline linked to Italy may facilitate the transportation of green and blue hydrogen. The signing of the MOU at Sonatrach's headquarters signifies a step towards a greener future, as both companies commit to renewable energy projects. Sonatrach's announcement of developing renewable energy capacity, green hydrogen initiatives, and carbon capture projects in Algeria, in collaboration with Eni, emphasizes the nation's dedication to sustainable practices.
