Launching in the Spanish heartland of Toledo, the Eco2Fly project marks a significant venture into sustainable aviation fuel (e-SAF) production, targeting a shift in how industrial emissions are repurposed. Through an alliance between Holcim, Ignis P2X, and Exolum, the project sets the ambitious target of producing 100,000 tonnes of hydrogen-based e-SAF each year by harnessing carbon emissions from cement production, an industry historically fraught with high CO2 outputs. The core innovation lies in the project’s ability to capture CO2 emissions directly from Holcim’s cement production processes. The Toledo facility is engineered to sequester over 700,000 tonnes of CO2 annually, a…

ONTRAS has announced the launch of a 25km green hydrogen pipeline connecting to the TotalEnergies refinery. This strategic infrastructure aims to bolster the country’s commitment to sustainable energy by transitioning from conventional fuels to hydrogen—a key player anticipated to occupy a significant role in Germany’s future energy mix. The relevance of this new pipeline cannot be overstated. The European Union has set ambitious climate targets, aiming for climate neutrality by 2050, and Germany has been front and center, spearheading efforts to reduce carbon emissions. By establishing such pivotal infrastructure, Germany is not just positioning itself to meet these targets but…

A €7 billion investment to produce one million tons of green ammonia annually might be a turning point for Egypt’s renewable energy trajectory. Yet beneath the optimism surrounding the Egypt-France deal signed during French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent visit to Cairo, critical questions remain about timelines, infrastructure readiness, and export market competitiveness. The agreement—inked by the Red Sea Ports Authority, Egypt’s New and Renewable Energy Authority (NREA), and the Green Fuel Alliance (a joint venture between EDF Renewables and Zero Waste)—marks one of the largest green hydrogen announcements in North Africa to date. The project, centered in Ras Shukheir, aims…
