Oman to set up Net Zero Centre | Decarbonisation

© Oman Ministry of Energy and Minerals © Oman Ministry of Energy and Minerals Oman is to set up a Net Zero Centre to monitor the implementation of projects and provide technical support as it strives to meet its goal of zero neutrality by 2050. The Sultanate, which benefits from abundant solar and wind resources, is actively targeting hydrogen, ammonia and low-carbon development and exports, with more than 50,000sq km currently allocated to green hydrogen production. The Centre will help in adopting and transferring the latest international practices and technologies while supporting scientific research, innovation, and developing national capabilities. Eight projects have been awarded to date, which are expected to produce 1,380 ktpa of green hydrogen. It will also oversee the registration and approval of requests for carbon certificate trading at the domestic level, ensuring… Read More »Oman to set up Net Zero Centre | Decarbonisation
