Key Ideas
  • Strategic agreements signed to enhance Abu Qir Fertilizers' sustainability and efficiency through green hydrogen adoption and advanced automation.
  • MPS to supply green hydrogen to partially replace natural gas, reduce emissions, comply with EU standards, and increase production capacity.
  • ABB Group to install advanced control system at the Ammonia Plant to reduce natural gas consumption by 2-4% and enhance operational efficiency.
  • The initiatives aim to strengthen Abu Qir Fertilizers' global competitiveness, minimize emissions, and support Egypt's sustainable development goals.
Egypt's Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources oversaw the signing of three strategic agreements aimed at enhancing the sustainability and efficiency of Abu Qir Fertilizers. The agreements focus on emissions reduction, improved energy efficiency, and the adoption of green technologies. One agreement involves MPS supplying green hydrogen, generated through water electrolysis powered by renewable energy, to partially replace natural gas in production processes. This initiative will significantly reduce natural gas consumption and carbon emissions, helping the company comply with EU standards. Another agreement includes installing an advanced automated control system at the Ammonia Plant to reduce natural gas consumption and enhance operational efficiency. These projects aim to strengthen the company's position in the nitrogen fertilizer sector, improve energy efficiency, and boost competitiveness in international markets through low-carbon solutions. The agreements showcase Abu Qir Fertilizers' commitment to implementing global technologies and supporting Egypt's sustainable development goals.
