In Cairo, a significant two-day conference between Europe and Egypt marked a milestone in their strategic partnership, particularly emphasizing green hydrogen and renewable energy. The Egyptian government's commitment to green hydrogen projects for exclusive export purposes was highlighted during the conference, aiming to export more than 15 million tons of green ammonia, which incorporates green hydrogen, to key markets in the European Union. Osama Fawzy Georgy Henein, the founder and CEO of the H2lligence platform, announced this development at the Cairo Sustainable Energy Week. Despite the focus on export, there was no mention of localizing green hydrogen for hard-to-decarbonize industries within Egypt. The conference showcased a dedication to economic and social advancements through sustainable energy practices, setting the stage for increased collaboration between Europe and Egypt in the green energy sector.
