Connecting Continents: The Southern Hydrogen Corridor and International Partnerships
Key Ideas
- Algeria, Austria, Germany, Italy, and Tunisia signed a declaration of intent in Rome to develop the Southern Hydrogen Corridor, a significant renewable energy project bridging North Africa and Europe.
- Sungrow Hydrogen secured a supply agreement with India’s ACME Group for its hydrogen project in Oman, providing water electrolysis equipment for a green ammonia project.
- SEFE and Höegh Evi entered an MoU to examine the feasibility of supplying Germany with clean hydrogen based on ammonia, focusing on sourcing, transportation, and delivery to German customers through the hydrogen core grid.
- ArcelorMittal Poland invested PLN 52 million in hydrogen furnaces at its Krakow plant, removing ammonia from the annealing process and reducing natural gas and electricity consumption, marking a technological advancement in the region.
Algeria, Austria, Germany, Italy, and Tunisia have joined forces to establish the Southern Hydrogen Corridor, a groundbreaking renewable energy initiative linking North Africa and Europe. The project, spanning 3500-4000 km, will transport gaseous hydrogen through five sub-projects involving converted natural gas pipelines. Additionally, Sungrow Hydrogen has inked a deal with ACME Group for the supply of water electrolysis equipment in Oman, supporting a large-scale green ammonia project with ambitious production targets. SEFE and Höegh Evi have collaborated to explore delivering clean hydrogen to Germany via ammonia, focusing on technical and commercial viability. In a separate development, ArcelorMittal Poland has introduced hydrogen furnaces at its Krakow facility, enhancing operational efficiency and reducing environmental impact. These initiatives underscore a collective commitment to advancing hydrogen technology and fostering international partnerships for sustainable energy solutions.
