- On Monday, March 11, Chariot announced the completion of a feasibility study into a large-scale green hydrogen project.

Today, Africa-focused transitional energy group Chariot announced the completion of a feasibility study into a large-scale green hydrogen project, “Project Nour”, in Mauritania. The company said it had presented the outcome of the study to the Government of Mauritania.
The feasibility study aims to provide a further definition of the scale and viability of the project, building on the Pre-Feasibility Study completed in 2022. This study confirmed that with up to 10 GW of electrolysis installed, Project Nour could become one of the largest green hydrogen projects globally.
The study confirmed the project’s global potential and outlined the first phase of planning for domestic offtake and export development for green steel production and export of green ammonia.
H.E. Nani Chrougha, Mauritanian Minister of Petroleum, Mines and Energy, said in a statement, “With the completion of the feasibility study of Project Nour, Mauritania has just taken an important step forward on the path to realising its green hydrogen ambitions.”
Project Nour is equally owned through a partnership between Chariot’s wholly owned subsidiary Chariot Green Hydrogen and TE H2, a company co-owned by TotalEnergies and EREN Group, and is being developed with the support of Mauritania’s Ministry of Petroleum, Energy and Mines.
