COP27 Side Event: Africa-Europe partnership – first bankable green hydrogen projects in Africa

Hydrogen Europe is pleased to invite you to its COP27 side event titled The building of strategic hydrogen partnerships between Africa and Europe led by first bankable green hydrogen projects in Africa which will take place online on 14.11.2022, from 13:00 until 14:00 CET.

The REPowerEU communication by the European Commission sets out the objective of delivering 20mt of renewable hydrogen by 2030, including 10mt of imports which will rely heavily on the conclusion of Hydrogen Partnerships between Europe, Africa and the Gulf.

Developing hydrogen economies in Africa will reduce the economic burden of importing fossil fuels, unlock access energy security and green fertilisers. Indeed, Africa offers great potential to produce price competitive renewable hydrogen both for domestic and export markets.

This event will showcase commercially feasible green hydrogen projects in Africa and discuss the building of strategic hydrogen partnerships between Africa and Europe.

Hanane El Hamraoui, VP Industry, HDF Energy
Torstein Berntsen, EVP for Power Production and head of offtake for green hydrogen, Scatec
