NEOM's Green Hydrogen Plant Nears Completion
NEOM Green Hydrogen Company (NGHC) has reached a significant milestone in its green hydrogen project at Oxagon, Saudi Arabia. This joint venture includes Saudi utility giant ACWA Power, U.S.-based Air Products, and NEOM, the developer of Saudi Arabia's ambitious smart city project. The construction has now completed 80% across all key project areas, including the hydrogen production plant, wind garden, solar farm, and transmission infrastructure. Once fully operational by the end of 2026, NGHC plans to operate the world's largest green hydrogen plant. This facility will produce up to 600 tonnes of carbon-free hydrogen daily, significantly contributing to reducing global carbon emissions. Additionally, this project supports the Kingdom's Vision 2030 ambitions, driving economic diversification and establishing global leadership in clean energy. Installation of Vital Equipment Underway The NGHC stated that installation of vital equipment is currently underway. This includes wind turbines, hydrogen storage vessels, electrolysers, cold boxes, and pipe racks—critical components needed to bring the plant into operation. The project is powered by a combination of solar and wind energy, with 4 GW of clean energy capacity targeted for completion by mid-2026. The first shipments of green ammonia—a transportable derivative of hydrogen—are projected to begin in 2027. Supporting Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 This pioneering project directly supports the Kingdom's Vision 2030 ambitions to drive economic diversification and global leadership in clean energy. By producing up to 600 tonnes of carbon-free hydrogen daily, the facility will significantly contribute to reducing global carbon emissions. The NEOM Green Hydrogen Plant stands as a testament to Saudi Arabia's commitment to sustainable development and its role in the global transition to clean energy. Short link : Post Views: 12

US-backed Gaza aid group names evangelical as chairman
UNITED NATIONS: The U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation on Tuesday named as its executive chairman an American evangelical Christian leader who has publicly backed President Donald Trump's proposal for the United States to take over the Palestinian enclave. The appointment of Rev. Dr. Johnnie Moore, a former evangelical adviser to the White House during Trump's first term in office, came as health officials said at least 27 people died and more than 150 were injured trying to reach a GHF aid site. "GHF is demonstrating that it is possible to move vast quantities of food to people who need it most — safely, efficiently, and effectively," Moore said in the foundation statement. "GHF believes that serving the people of Gaza with dignity and compassion must be the top priority." • GHF says it has delivered some 7 million meals in Gaza • UN refuses to work with GHF, says aid distribution militarized • Israel accuses Hamas of stealing aid, Hamas denies it The GHF began operations one week ago under a distribution model criticized by the United Nations as the militarization of aid. The GHF says so far it has given out seven million meals from so-called secure distribution sites. It uses private U.S. security and logistics companies to get aid into Gaza. The U.N. and aid groups have refused to work with the GHF because they say it is not a neutral operation. U.N. aid chief Tom Fletcher has said it "makes aid conditional on political and military aims" and uses starvation as "a bargaining chip." The appointment of Moore could fuel U.N. concerns, given his support for the controversial proposal Trump floated in February for the U.S. to take over Gaza and develop it economically. After Trump proposed the idea, Moore posted video of Trump's remarks on X and wrote: "The USA will take full responsibility for future of Gaza, giving everyone hope & a future." 'BAD GUYS' The U.N. did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the appointment of Moore, who has accused the U.N. of ignoring "bad guys" stealing aid in Gaza. The U.N. has long-blamed Israel and lawlessness in the enclave for impediments getting aid into Gaza and distributing throughout the war zone. Israel has long accused Hamas of stealing aid, which the group denies. In a reference to the new GHF-led aid model, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week said Israel was "taking control of food distribution" in Gaza. "The @UN & others should clean up their act & work with America," Moore posted on May 26. "Surely, these old U.S. & E.U.-funded humanitarian orgs won't let people starve in exchange for being 'right' when they know what they have done hasn't worked & has, in fact, made a terrible war worse?" The war in Gaza has raged since 2023 after Hamas militants killed 1,200 people in Israel in an October 7 attack and took some 250 hostages, according to Israeli tallies, and Israel responded with a military campaign that has killed over 54,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health authorities. Moore visited Israel about three months after the 2023 Hamas attack and wrote: "Never have I seen such horror." Just a couple of weeks later, he posted a video titled "Come visit beautiful Gaza," which sought to portray Gaza as a tourist destination if it wasn't for Hamas militants. Trump has said Gaza has the potential to be "The Riviera of the Middle East." The United Nations has long endorsed a vision of two states living side by side within secure and recognized borders. Palestinians want a state in the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip, all territory captured by Israel in a 1967 war with neighboring Arab states.
