Omida shared that Henfra plans to build five green ammonia plants to supply Eastern and Central Europe, with Egypt chosen as the location for one of these facilities. In addition to producing green ammonia, Henfra will transfer technical expertise to Egypt in areas such as green hydrogen production, renewable energy storage systems, water desalination, and advanced electrolysis technologies. The plant will generate green hydrogen through water electrolysis, which will then be combined with nitrogen at high temperatures to create green ammonia. The EU aims to import 6 million tonnes of green hydrogen and 4 million tonnes of green ammonia by 2030, positioning Egypt as a key player in the EU’s sustainable energy strategy. Heiba highlighted Egypt’s commitment to the green hydrogen and ammonia sectors, pointing to recent legislative incentives and the creation of the National Green Hydrogen Council.
