In order to jointly develop the “Nour Project,” a sizable green hydrogen project to be located in Mauritania, “The Consortium,” made up of Chariot, the Africa-focused transitional energy company, and Total Eren, a leading Paris-based renewable energy Independent Power Producer (IPP), announced that it will begin feasibility studies.

Mauritania has proven to be particularly well-positioned to adopt Power-to-X solutions with its unique solar and wind resources, giving Nour Project the chance to manufacture some of the most cost-effective green hydrogen in the whole globe. It has the potential to be one of the most major green hydrogen projects in Africa, with the ability to deploy up to 10 GW of electrolysis.

Through the Nour Project, the Consortium will support Mauritania’s sustainable economic growth, possibly by supplying baseload electricity to the country’s grid and diversifying the country’s industrial base.
