Mauritania is undergoing a significant transformation, shifting its focus from an agriculture-based economy to becoming a major player in the energy sector, particularly with a strong emphasis on green hydrogen. The discovery of gas at the Greater Tortue Ahmeyim (GTA) LNG field, a project led by BP and Kosmos Energy, has propelled the country into the global energy landscape, enhancing energy security in West Africa and attracting substantial investment. What distinguishes Mauritania is its ambitious commitment to green hydrogen production. Leveraging its abundant solar and wind resources, the country is strategically positioning itself to supply green hydrogen to Europe, aiming to export 10 million tonnes annually by 2030. With an estimated 400 GW of commercially viable renewable energy, Mauritania's potential exceeds Germany's total installed power capacity, presenting lucrative opportunities for hydrogen investors, developers, and policymakers. This move is crucial as governments worldwide push for decarbonization and the need for reliable hydrogen sources for industrial transformation grows. By fostering strategic alliances and making significant infrastructure investments, Mauritania is paving the way to becoming Africa's primary energy hub. This transformation not only positions the country as a leading green hydrogen exporter but also has the potential to reshape the global hydrogen trade, creating a new supply chain for clean energy. The future looks promising for Mauritania as it embarks on this journey towards energy sustainability and environmental responsibility.
