The NEOM Green Hydrogen Co., popularly known as NGHC, has named David Edmondson as its new CEO, according to a statement from the firm.
“The hiring of David Edmondson as NGHC’s CEO is a natural follow-up to our recent agreement to develop the world’s biggest green hydrogen plant,” stated Nadhmi Al-Nasr, CEO of NEOM and Chairman of NGHC.
Edmondson has worked in a number of leadership capacities in engineering and global gases in the Middle East and across the world during his 34-year career with Air Products, a US industrial gas provider.
At Air Products, he served as Vice President of Business Transformation and Vice President and Executive Project Director for the Jazan integrated gasification project.
NGHC is a joint venture between NEOM, ACWA Power, and Air Products to create a world-scale, renewable-energy-powered green-hydrogen-based ammonia manufacturing facility.
To preserve a sustainable environment, NEOM will use the green hydrogen it creates to power clean, self-driving electric automobiles.
