Milestone Green Hydrogen Project Launch in Angola Signals Sustainable Industrialization in Africa
Key Ideas
  • Conjuncta GmbH and Gauff Engineering, alongside other partners, invest in a large-scale green hydrogen production project in Angola, marking the first private sector investment of its kind in the African continent.
  • The project aims to produce green hydrogen and derivatives by utilizing spare capacity from existing hydroelectric power, with a planned electrolysis capacity of up to 600 MW, with the green ammonia production expected to reach 400,000 tons annually in its initial phase.
  • This initiative not only accelerates the global clean energy transition but also positions Angola as a significant supplier of green ammonia, aligning with the country's development strategies and contributing to combating climate change.
  • Partners involved, including CWP Global, Sonangol, Gauff and Conjuncta, expressed optimism and commitment towards establishing a sustainable and scalable green hydrogen industry that can support both local and global efforts in addressing climate change.
In a historic move, Conjuncta GmbH and Gauff Engineering have become the first German private sector investors to participate in a large-scale green hydrogen production project in Angola, making significant strides in sustainable industrialization in Africa. The partnership, which includes CWP Global and Sonangol, was formalized at the Angola Oil & Gas conference in Luanda. The project, utilizing existing hydroelectric power generation capacity, plans to produce green hydrogen and derivatives, with a capacity of up to 600 MW for electrolysis and an initial green ammonia production target of 400,000 tons annually. This initiative not only supports the global trend of scaling up green hydrogen production for achieving net zero emissions but also positions Angola as a key player in supplying green ammonia. The project aligns with Angola's long-term development strategies and national plans, emphasizing a commitment to combat climate change. Stakeholders involved, such as CWP Global, Sonangol, Gauff, and Conjuncta, have shown enthusiasm and dedication towards creating a sustainable green hydrogen industry that can have a positive impact on both local and global decarbonization efforts.
