The MoU was signed between the Ministry of Energy and Minerals of the Sultanate and the Belgian Ministry of Energy. According to a press release, both parties want to promote and develop initiatives and projects in the field of green energy for mutual benefit.
According to the MoU, Oman and Belgium will work together on the green Hydrogen Sultanate anchor project “Hyport Duqm”. The agreement will support the collaboration between companies from two countries to create an international consortium for the production of green hydrogen.
The MOU also called for the implementation of standards for green certification and the interaction between universities, scientific research institutes and the private sector of both countries.
