Manah 2 <\/strong>beats the clock:<\/strong> Singapore\u2019s Sembcorp Utilities, a subsidiary of Semcorp Industries, has successfully completed the acceptance tests to begin commercial operations for its Manah 2 solar power project in Oman, according to a disclosure (pdf)<\/a>. The project is set to kick off commercial operations over four months ahead of schedule with an installed peak capacity of 588 MW. <\/p>\n

More about the plant: <\/strong>Manah 2 is Sembcorp\u2019s first regional renewable project, and the largest in its global renewables portfolio. It is one of two plants making up the 1 GW Manah solar development estimated at a total cost of about USD 800 mn<\/a>. The plant is developed by a joint venture between Sembcorp Utilities and China\u2019s Jinko Power and is backed by a 20-year power purchase agreement with Oman\u2019s Nama Power and Water Procurement Company. The other plant \u2014 Manah 1 \u2014 is developed by EDF Renewables and Korea Western Power, with a 500 MW capacity. <\/p>\n

ICYMI- <\/strong>Sembcorp announced a USD 528.5 mn<\/a> investment in green energy initiatives to establish itself as a leading low-carbon firm last August. The company aims to develop low-carbon industrial parks in Asia, including Vietnam and Indonesia, and explore partnerships for an asset management platform.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s more in the pipeline for <\/strong>Oman<\/strong>: <\/strong>Earlier this month, Oman\u2019s OQ\u2019s green energy investment arm OQ Alternative Energy inked an agreement with TotalEnergies to develop 300 MW<\/a> of renewable energy in Oman via three projects. The country \u2014 which inaugurated its first grid-connected solar power project Ibri II in January 2022 \u2014 is also reviewing advanced bids to build a 280 MW<\/a> and a 500 MW<\/a> solar plants.<\/p>\n

IN OTHER OMAN UPDATES- <\/p>\n

Acme <\/strong>advances its Oman hydrogen plant: <\/strong>Shuangliang Hydrogen, a subsidiary of the Chinese conglomerate Shuangliang Group (SLG), has secured a contract to supply green hydrogen production equipment for Indian renewables company Acme\u2019s green hydrogen plant in Oman, according to a statement<\/a>. No financial details were disclosed for the agreement.<\/p>\n

What we know: <\/strong>The project<\/a> \u2014 being developed by the Acme-owned Green Hydrogen and Chemicals Company (GHC) \u2014 is expected to produce 100k tons of green ammonia annually in the first phase, with plans to expand it to 900k tons later, Oman Observer<\/a> reports. Previously, it was reported that the project will have an up to 1.2mn tons capacity. <\/p>\n

Acme is already eying exports:<\/strong> Last April, Acme signed an MoU<\/a> with German liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC) firm Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies to jointly explore the development of hydrogen supply chains from Acme\u2019s Omani plants to hubs in Europe. Hydrogen produced from Acme\u2019s projects in Oman would be stored in LOHC and then sent to Europe by tankers. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
