<\/a> Belgium\u2019s John Cockerill sets up JV with Morocco on green hydrogen:<\/strong> Belgium mechanical engineering group John Cockerill<\/a> has signed a strategic joint venture (JV) agreement with an unnamed Moroccan energy company to develop a value chain dedicated to undertaking green hydrogen projects in Morocco, it announced in a statement (pdf)<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in the pipeline?<\/strong> Among the planned green hydrogen projects is the establishment of Africa\u2019s first alkaline electrolyzer manufacturing plant, a gigafactory aimed at building Morocco\u2019s green hydrogen industry, the statement tells us. The JV will enable large-scale manufacturing of \u201chigh powered alkaline electrolyzers,\u201d suggesting we\u2019ll see a rollout of John Cockerill\u2019s 5 MW single stack pressurized electrolyzer \u2014 which the company claims<\/a> is the largest in the market. A large cell stack (which is essentially a number of hydrogen-producing cells stacked together<\/a>) provides low capex and opex costs and ups efficiency by minimizing the number of units installed, John Cockerill notes on its website.<\/p>\n

Morocco is already on its way to becoming a regional renewables powerhouse: <\/strong>The country recently passed<\/a> a law that will allow individuals and businesses to generate, store, and sell their own electricity from renewables. It also plans to export<\/a> 3.6 GW of electricity to the UK from solar and wind energy projects with a combined capacity of 10.5 GW by 2030. Morocco received<\/a> EUR 38 mn from Germany to finance its first green hydrogen plant in October 2022 and it was recently identified<\/a> as one of three prospective hubs for green hydrogen export in Africa in a European Investment Bank-led study.<\/p>\n

A number of regional and international players are eyeing investment: <\/strong>Egypt\u2019s Hassan Allam Holding is looking at investing USD 50-150 mn<\/a> in Morocco\u2019s renewables, while Orascom Investment Holding is eyeing an initial USD 100 mn investment, and both independent power producer Lekela and Indian conglomerate Adani Group are considering getting in on the action.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
