El Nahda Industries has taken a significant step toward industrial decarbonisation by signing a long-term solar power agreement for its cement plant in Egypt. The company will source clean electricity from a dedicated on-site solar photovoltaic (PV) facility under a 30-year Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), reinforcing the growing role of renewables in heavy industry across the MENA region.

Iberdrola Germany has completed a 65MWp solar plant in Saxony-Anhalt supplying renewable electricity to Salzgitter AG for green steel production.
