Like many other countries on the continent, Namibia is plagued
by energy poverty which poses an obstacle to the economic growth
and development of Namibia and her people. Green hydrogen offers a
possible solution by providing reliable energy in the country,
creating jobs in the production and distribution of hydrogen and
driving economic growth, all while enabling Namibia to export green
electrons to the global north and the southern African region.
On Thursday, 26 January 2023, ENSafrica | Namibia (incorporated
as Lorentz Angula Inc.) and Rand Merchant Bank (RMB) held a panel
discussion titled "Leveraging Green Hydrogen to Drive Economic
Prosperity in Namibia". The discussion was opened by RMB
Namibia Chairman, Philip Chapman, and moderated
by Sector Lead for Mining and Resources at RMB, Fabian Shaanika and
ENSafrica's Project Development and Energy Senior Associate, Stefanie Busch.
