Bild – Hyphen Hydrogen Project in Namibia: Germany’s Green Energy Investment

The image is a map by Bild, illustrating the “Hyphen” Hydrogen Project in Namibia, which represents a significant German investment in green energy. The map highlights various elements of the project:

The project is located in the southwestern part of Namibia, near the coast, including the area around Lüderitz and extending inland towards the Tsau //Khaeb (Sperrgebiet) National Park.

The map marks the “Konzessionsgebiete,” or concession areas, with a large yellow-bordered rectangle. This area is designated for the production of hydrogen through renewable energy sources. Inside the concession areas, symbols for wind turbines and solar panels are used to show where these renewable energy sources will be implemented. The map also indicates a possible site for electrolysis plants, which are necessary for producing hydrogen.

The map illustrates the planned transportation of “green” ammonia by ship from Lüderitz to Germany, showcasing the global trade implications of this project. The Tsau //Khaeb (Sperrgebiet) National Park is also marked, showing the project’s proximity to protected areas.

There is an inset map of Namibia showing the broader location of the project within the country.
