[Austria's OMV secures € 123 million financing to build green hydrogen plant] Austrian energy giant OMV AG recently announced that its green hydrogen electrolysis plant project located in the Bruker region of Austria has successfully received 123 million euros in financing support. The planned production capacity of the factory is 140 megawatts, and the annual green hydrogen output after completion can reach 23000 tons. It is expected to be put into operation in 2027. The project funding is mainly provided by the Austrian Federal Development Bank, with OMV investing hundreds of millions of euros and introducing Abu Dhabi energy company Masdar as a strategic investor.

• The implementation of Nigeria's mining center development strategy is reshaping the mineral processing pattern in Africa. The country relies on abundant mineral resources such as lead, gold, silver, and copper, implements the policy of "no processing, no export of minerals", and constructs a complete value chain from mining to deep processing. At present, it has attracted over 1.3 billion US dollars from Chinese enterprises to invest in the construction of lithium processing facilities, supporting transportation and green energy infrastructure, promoting the transformation of the industry from raw material exports to high value-added products, and providing a new paradigm for the localization and value-added of mineral resources in Africa.Editor/Bian Wenjun
