Mitsubishi Power, ANRPC complete MENA's first hydrogen boiler retrofit
Image: Supplied Mitsubishi Power, a brand of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries (MHI), has successfully completed and handed over a groundbreaking hydrogen fuel conversion project at the Alexandria National Refining and Petrochemicals Company (ANRPC) refinery in Egypt. The initiative marks the first industrial application of hydrogen as fuel in an industrial boiler in both Egypt and the wider MENA region. Announced in 2022 as a full turnkey contract, the project involved Mitsubishi Power managing the design, engineering, supply, and installation of equipment and control systems. The team rehabilitated and upgraded a 100-tonne-per-hour boiler, enabling it to operate entirely on hydrogen, transitioning from its previous use of heavy fuel oil and natural gas. The project enables the reuse of 14,000 tonnes of hydrogen-rich gases annually from production units, slashing natural gas consumption by an estimated 24,000 tonnes and cutting carbon emissions by roughly 65,000 tonnes per year. This milestone aligns with Egypt's broader energy transition and sustainable development objectives, positioning the country as a regional leader in clean energy. It also reflects Mitsubishi Power's dedication to delivering decarbonisation technologies, while spotlighting the role of hydrogen in transforming Egypt's industrial energy landscape. Sayed Al-Rawi, chairman and managing director of ANRPC, said: 'We are proud to be part of Egypt's journey towards a clean energy future and to contribute to achieving Egypt Vision 2030 with this pioneering milestone to using hydrogen as a fuel. This project represents an unprecedented achievement for ANRPC, Egypt, and the entire region. By integrating hydrogen into refining processes, we are contributing to reduce Egypt's carbon footprint and set a new standard for the country's industrial sector. We are proud of our partnership with Mitsubishi Power on this project, which is a true example of how international partnerships and advanced technology can bring about fundamental change toward a sustainable energy future. We are thrilled about the positive environmental impact of this project in reducing emissions, and we look forward to continuing our role in supporting Egypt's transition to clean energy. Together, we can help meet current energy needs and participate in shaping a sustainable energy future in Egypt and the region.' The collaboration also reinforces Egypt's strategy to emerge as a key player in the global hydrogen economy. Javier Cavada, president and CEO for Europe, Middle East and Africa at Mitsubishi Power, added: 'The success of this first-of-a-kind hydrogen conversion project marks a milestone in Egypt's transition to clean energy and reflects Mitsubishi Power's global leadership in developing advanced, low-carbon power generation technologies. We are honored to partner with ANRPC and support Egypt's ambitious vision for a clean energy transition, providing our expertise to transition existing infrastructure to low-carbon commercially viable systems. This project will lay down the foundation to a commercial path for decarbonizing Egypt's industrial facilities with minimal downtime, in addition to demonstrating the tangible and positive impact of hydrogen in reducing emissions and developing sustainable energy solutions. Mitsubishi Power is committed to supporting Egypt's journey towards a cleaner and more sustainable energy future, and we look forward to strengthening our collaboration with ANRPC and other stakeholders to drive the transition to hydrogen across the region.' With the successful handover complete, the project is expected to serve as a catalyst for future hydrogen adoption across Egypt and the MENA region, further enhancing the country's position in the low-carbon energy transition.

International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) Director-General to Deliver Keynote Speech at African Mining Week (AMW) 2025
Francesco La Camera, Director-General of the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), has confirmed his participation at the upcoming African Mining Week (AMW) conference – Africa's premier gathering for mining stakeholders. La Camera will deliver a keynote address titled Critical Minerals: Driving Renewable Development in Africa. His address is expected to spotlight Africa's pivotal role in the global clean energy revolution, underpinned by the continent's 30% share of global critical and energy transition minerals such as copper, cobalt, rare earths and lithium. African Mining Week serves as a premier platform for exploring the full spectrum of mining opportunities across Africa. The event is held alongside the African Energy Week: Invest in African Energies 2025 conference from October 1-3 in Cape Town. Sponsors, exhibitors and delegates can learn more by contacting sales@ As the head of the global intergovernmental body advancing knowledge and the adoption of renewable energy, La Camera's participation underscores Africa's growing influence as a key enabler of the global energy transition. African countries rich in energy transition minerals are already ramping up production to meet surging global demand. The Democratic Republic of Congo, which holds the world's largest cobalt reserves essential for the development of battery storage, is pursuing reforms to unlock its estimated $24 trillion worth of mineral resources. Zambia, a key copper supplier, aims to boost copper output to three million tons per year by 2031, while Zimbabwe – Africa's top lithium producer – is implementing measures to scale production and promote local manufacturing of lithium-ion batteries. La Camera's keynote is expected to highlight efforts by African markets as well as a broader roadmap for the continent to harness its mineral wealth for sustainable energy growth. Amid the global push to accelerate renewables adoption for environmental sustainability, improved energy access and industrial growth - particularly in mining – AMW offers a strategic platform for IRENA to share insights on Africa's progress and highlight best practices to fast-track renewable energy penetration across the continent. According to IRENA's latest report Renewable Energy Statistics 2025, global renewable energy capacity grew by 15% in 2024, with Africa recording a 7.2% increase. Mining companies are increasingly turning to renewables to power operations with firms such as Northam, Richards Bay Minerals, Ivanhoe Mines, First Quantum Minerals and Trafigura integrating renewables to ensure reliable and cost-effective power supply for their operations. Against this backdrop, La Camera is poised to spotlight the vast opportunities emerging at the intersection of Africa's mining and renewable energy sectors.
