This project aims to align with Djibouti’s “Vision 2035” economic plan. This one gives priority to closer cooperation with regional neighbors, including Ethiopia. Thus, the Djibouti government wishes to develop an African collaboration on green energy. “Vision 2035 also represents an opportunity to build a new commercial hub at the mouth of the Red Sea.

Alex Hewitt, CEO of CWP Global, said:

As we saw at COP27, momentum is building rapidly on the African continent to pursue large-scale renewable energy and green fuels. At CWP, we are very proud to play a major role in realizing this new phase of sustainable, emission-free economic growth in Africa. We intend to use our experience in developing a leading PtX portfolio over the past five years to move forward quickly and collaboratively in the development of this project in Djibouti, a country with exceptional natural resources and a highly strategic location.

Thus, with this project CWP Global is expanding its portfolio in Africa. Indeed, the company is one of the world’s leading developers of large-scale renewable energy and renewable hydrogen projects. Thus, the company puts its skills to work in the development of renewable energy in a region particularly vulnerable to climate change.
