In the United Arab Emirates, Zawya reported that Oman’s Ministry of Energy and Minerals, and Belgium’s Ministry of Energy have signed an agreement for a Green Energy Certificate pilot project for the ‘Hyport Duqm’ project.
According to the report, the Hyport Duqm is a joint venture between Belgium’s DEME Concessions and Oman’s OQ Alternative Energy for the development of a green hydrogen and green ammonia production facility near the Port of Duqm in Oman.
The report said the agreement aims to evaluate the adherence of green hydrogen projects in Oman to the European Union’s criteria to pave the way for exporting green hydrogen to European markets in the future.
The HYPORT Duqm project includes a solar and wind park with a total installed capacity of about 1.3GW, a high-voltage green electricity transmission line, and a utility-scale electrolysis and ammonia conversion plant.
