Oman Shell, Oman Airports sign green hydrogen partnership.

The project states that the oil company will provide up to 15 hydrogen cars for corporate usage by its partner and both firms will accelerate the development of hydrogen production.

Oman Shell and Oman Airports have signed a new partnership for development of several green hydrogen projects. The first phase of the association includes the provision of up to 15 hydrogen cars by the oil company’s subsidiary to its partner for corporate usage.

Walid Hadi,  VP and Country Chairman for Oman Shell, said:

Working with Oman Airports for the hydrogen for mobility project will help our efforts to support the Oman Vision 2040 energy objectives.

“It is also in line with Shell’s Powering Progress Strategy and our target to become a net-zero-emission energy business by 2050, in step with society.”

The project will include development of hydrogen production units that will be powered by photovoltaic solar plants and installed at different fueling units related to the project.

These stations will be selected strategically to maximise benefits for the initiative and allow members of the public to have visibility of the technology.

Sheikh Aimen Al Hosni, CEO of Oman Airports, siad:

We are looking to capitalise on Oman Shell’s renewable energy initiatives and are glad to be working together on the first phase of its ‘Green Hydrogen for Mobility’ project.

“We are committed with clear environmental policy to build a sustainable environment and become a green airport.” Thanks for staying up to date with Hydrogen Central.

As Omani regulatory bodies develop the required regulations to enable a strong hydrogen economy in the Sultanate, Oman Shell will work closely with them to provide hydrogen expertise and input.
