Mauritania - Project Nour
Chariot (OTCPK:OIGLF) has signed in September 2021 an MOU with the Ministry of Petroleum, Mines, and Energy of Mauritania to develop a large-scale green hydrogen project. The partnership will develop a potential 10 GW green hydrogen facility named "Project Nour." The project would cover an area of 14,400 sq km onshore and offshore, producing power from solar and wind resources for electrolysis to produce green hydrogen. The green hydrogen would then be exported to the international market, particularly in Europe. The feasibility work to assess the wind and solar resources, and environmental impact and social impact studies should start soon.
Morocco - Guelmim-Oued Noun
Morocco has adopted a national policy for the development of green hydrogen projects in 2021. Morocco wants to impose itself worldwide as a leader in this sector. Total Eren announced in January that it will invest $10.69 billion in the realization of a project for the production of green hydrogen and green ammonia in the region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. The hybrid project will generate more than 10 GW by combining solar and wind energy. Topographic studies of the site covering an area of more than 170 sq km, analysis of the renewable resource, and preliminary design have already been carried out. The Guelmin-Oued Noun project should enter its active phase by 2025 and the first production is expected by 2027.
