Egypt\u2019s SCZone gets busy: <\/strong>Egypt has inked seven MoUs with international and local companies to develop green hydrogen and renewable energy projects worth USD 41 bn in the Suez Canal Economic Zone over the next ten years, according to a statement<\/a>. Specific investment details for each project nor project timelines were not disclosed.<\/p>\n

Who\u2019s involved? <\/strong>The MoUs were signed with London-based PASH Global<\/a>, Switzerland\u2019s Smart Energy<\/a>, South Korea\u2019s SK ecoplant<\/a>, Canada-based AmmPower<\/a>, China\u2019s United Energy Group<\/a>, and Egypt\u2019s Gila Al Tawakol Electric<\/a> and Gama Construction<\/a>. <\/p>\n

What we know: <\/strong>Some USD 12 bn will be deployed during the pilot phase of the projects, while USD 29 bn willbe invested in the first phases of development.<\/p>\n

A big leap forward in an ambitious plan: <\/strong>Renewable energy andespecially green hydrogen targets have been central to the economic strategy for President Abdel Fattah El Sisi\u2019s third term, which outlines plans to turn Egypt into a regional hub for green hydrogen<\/a> production by 2026 and a global hub by 2030. The country aims to produce 3.2 mn tons of green hydrogen per year by 2029 and 9.2 mn tons per year by 2040.<\/p>\n

And Egypt is making it enticing: <\/strong>Companies that implement green hydrogen projects within five years will receive tax breaks of 33-50%<\/a> on income and pay no VAT on raw materials, plant and machinery bought for the plants, according to the law ratified by President Abdel Fattah El Sisi last month<\/a>. Details for the long-awaited national green hydrogen strategy look close to being finalized, after the Supreme Council of Energy approved<\/a> a national strategy on Tuesday. <\/p>\n

REMEMBER- <\/strong>Egypt inked framework agreements worth a combined USD 83 bn<\/a> during 2022\u2019sCOP27 in Sharm El Sheikh with international companies to construct nine green hydrogen and ammonia facilities in the SCZone. The facilities would collectively produce up to 7.6 mn tons of green ammonia and 2.7 mn tons of hydrogen a year when fully operational.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
