MAYER BROWN ADVISES MAURITANIA ON GREEN HYDROGEN LEGISLATION

Share
Paris, September 16, 2024 – Continuing its long-term support to the Government of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania in the energy sector, Mayer Brown advised on the legal and fiscal framework for the Green Hydrogen Code; one of the world’s first dedicated legislations that will now permit investors to launch green hydrogen projects in one of Africa’s windiest and sunniest countries.

On September 9th, the National Assembly (parliament) approved the law, which aims to expand access to modern energy and turn it into a major driver of the national economy, while directing the energy sector toward a sustainable transition that meets current and future requirements. It is expected to play a pivotal role in enhancing energy security and achieving sustainable development goals.

These projects include the establishment of green hydrogen production facilities and the development of the necessary infrastructure for distributing and exporting this new energy source. The Mauritanian government aims to start production by 2030, which will contribute to positioning Mauritania among the leading countries in this field both regionally and internationally.

The Paris-based Mayer Brown team is led by partner Olivier Mélédo and includes partner Benjamin Homo, counsel Louis Nayberg, and associates Stéphane Joly and Nicolas Vergnet.
