- Cepsa and Sonatrach have signed today a memorandum of understanding to jointly carry out a feasibility study for the development of an integrated project for green hydrogen production and derivatives in Algeria, mainly aimed at supplying the European market.
This MOU envisions the implementation of a green hydrogen project in two phases, the first of which would focus on conducting studies to assess the feasibility, opportunity, and profitability of the project, while the second phase would be dedicated to the development of the project.
The integrated development of the project would contribute to the decarbonisation objectives of both companies. It includes the construction of an electrolysis hydrogen production plant, solar and wind plants to supply renewable energy to the electrolyzers, a methanol and/or green ammonia production plant, as well as necessary facilities for storage, transportation, and other auxiliary facilities for the commercial operation of the project.
