What ground zero for African green hydrogen looks like

From the newsletter

Located on Namibia’s Atlantic coast, Walvis Bay is rapidly transforming from a logistics hub into the core of the country’s green hydrogen ambitions. At a recent forum, officials and developers highlighted multi-billion-dollar projects underway in the area, targeting up to 500,000 tonnes of ammonia output and thousands of jobs.

• Walvis Bay is home to at least five major green hydrogen and ammonia projects, forming a concentrated cluster that is quickly establishing the city as Namibia’s premier hydrogen investment and industrial centre.

• With its deep-water port, abundant renewable energy and upgraded infrastructure, Walvis Bay serves as a strategic hub, efficiently connecting inland production sites to global ammonia and hydrogen markets.
