With its sun and wind, Mauritania has a vast renewable energy potential. The EU fully shares its ambition to develop as a hub for
green hydrogen. Global Gateway provides the frame for partnerships in strategic sectors like green energy. This is how Team
Europe will contribute to the green transition of Mauritania, creating at the same time new opportunities for its people and
businesses.
Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission
The large-scale development of green hydrogen can be an accelerator of green economic growth in Africa and Europe. It
deserves to be at the heart of the global Gateway initiative.
Mohamed Ould Ghazouani, Mauritanian President
