Speaking in 𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙞𝙚, ||Kharas Region, yesterday, following a visit by the Namibia Green Hydrogen Programme, Chief Frederik urged young people to equip themselves with knowledge, seek credible information and position themselves to benefit from opportunities in employment, entrepreneurship, logistics and other supporting industries. He further encouraged the youth to make productive use of modern technology, particularly mobile phones, as tools for learning, research and sharing accurate information. He emphasised the importance of taking initiative, remaining informed and actively participating in developments that could shape Namibia’s economic future. The ||Kharas Region is emerging as a strategic hub for renewable energy and green industrialisation, with several developments underway, including the proposed large-scale Hyphen Green Hydrogen Project.

With a carrying capacity of 210,000 deadweight tonnes, the vessel represents a significant breakthrough in efforts to decarbonise global shipping. According to CMB.TECH’s official announcement, 21 additional ammonia-powered vessels are scheduled to join its fleet by 2029. This milestone demonstrates the growing commercial application of green ammonia as an alternative marine fuel and signals an emerging international market for green fuels that Namibia is positioning itself to supply. For Namibia, this achievement is particularly significant because CMB.TECH is already investing in green hydrogen and ammonia developments in Walvis Bay, Erongo Region. Through its Namibian operations, the company is advancing green hydrogen production, refuelling infrastructure and a proposed ammonia storage and bunkering terminal at the Port of Walvis Bay, with a planned storage capacity of 55,000 tonnes. The company is also collaborating with TransNamib on a hydrogen-diesel dual-fuel locomotive, planned for a six-month pilot involving approximately 50 return journeys between Walvis Bay and Windhoek. These initiatives demonstrate how technologies being commercialised internationally can be introduced into Namibia’s transport and logistics sectors, creating opportunities for local skills development, industrial investment and participation in emerging clean-energy value chains. The Namibia Green Hydrogen Programme welcomes this milestone as further evidence that green industrialisation is moving beyond ambition towards practical commercial applications. As international demand for cleaner maritime fuels grows, Namibia has an opportunity to leverage its renewable energy resources, strategic Atlantic coastline and port infrastructure to become a competitive producer, supplier and bunkering hub for green hydrogen and ammonia. The Programme looks forward to CMB.TECH translating its international technological achievements into successful projects in Walvis Bay and across the Erongo Region, contributing to Namibia’s ambition of building a diversified, industrialised economy that creates employment, develops local expertise and adds value to its renewable energy resources.

At the 81st Session of the United Nations General Assembly, H.E. Dr Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, President of the Republic of Namibia, placed youth development and climate justice at the centre of Namibia’s development agenda. The President highlighted Namibia’s efforts to prepare young people to participate meaningfully in emerging industries, including oil and gas, renewable energy and green hydrogen. Building the skills and capabilities of young Namibians is critical to ensuring that the country’s natural resources and emerging industries translate into employment, entrepreneurship and long-term economic opportunities. To date, Namibia has awarded close to 270 scholarships in fields related to renewable energy and green technologies. On climate change, President Nandi-Ndaitwah underscored the imbalance faced by Namibia and other developing countries: despite contributing a very small share of global greenhouse-gas emissions, they remain highly exposed to droughts, rising temperatures and increasing pressure on agriculture and water resources. She called for greater responsibility and sustainable climate financing to support vulnerable countries in responding to these impacts and advancing SDG 13. #Namibia #GreenHydrogen #GreenIndustrialisation #YouthDevelopment #ClimateJustice #ClimateFinance #RenewableEnergy #UNGA81 #SDG13

The NGH2P was represented by Interim Head of Programme Joseph Mukendwa Mukendwa & Manager: External Affairs & Communications Jona MUSHEKO, who participated in a series of technical engagements, high-level discussions & industry panels. The Summit brought together governments, development partners, investors, technology providers and project developers to advance green hydrogen and Power-to-X projects from ambition towards bankable implementation. Ahead of the official opening, NGH2P participated in a technical leadership engagement involving, among others, South Africa’s Green Hydrogen Just Energy Transition Investment Plan PMO, the 🇪🇺 , 🇩🇪 , 🇩🇰 , GIZ South Africa, Lesotho & eSwatini, GIZ Namibia , & private-sector players. Discussions focused on the current market realities facing green hydrogen, viable business models, technology, financing, skills, localisation and how African and European partners can jointly build commercially sustainable value chains. On Tuesday, 🇳🇦 participated in discussions on “From National Strategies to Delivery Institutions: What Governments Need to Build to Get to Gigawatts,” where Mukendwa joined counterparts from 🇿🇦 , 🇰🇪 & the African Green Hydrogen Alliance to share experiences on institutional coordination, project support and investment mobilisation. On Wednesday, he joined the Three Capes regional integration panel, examining how 🇳🇦 , the Northern Cape, Western Cape and Eastern Cape can connect infrastructure, industries and investment into a wider Western SADC hydrogen ecosystem. NGH2P also participated in a GIZ-led discussion on linking green hydrogen, batteries & critical minerals to localisation, beneficiation, employment & regional value creation. The Summit also saw financing announcements, including a €20 million EU grant, with potential to mobilise a further €200 million through KfW for 🇿🇦 , an additional €37 million through the Global Gateway, and US$20 million in reimbursable grant funding from the African Development Bank for projects in 🇲🇦 , 🇪🇬 , 🇿🇦 and 🇳🇦 . Such commitments are important for de-risking emerging projects and strengthening investor confidence. Our interconnected infrastructure, minerals, energy systems, skills, ports and industrial capabilities provide a strong basis for regional value chains that can retain more value, create jobs and position Southern Africa competitively in global green markets. #GreenHydrogen #GreenIndustrialisation #Namibia #SouthAfrica #SADC
