SCZone forges partnerships at World Hydrogen Summit: Egypt’s Suez Canal Economic Zone (SCZone) has signed an MoU with the Rotterdam Foundation to explore cooperation on the transition to a green economy on the sidelines of the World Hydrogen Summit, according to a statement published last week. The two will collaborate on training programs, exchange technical expertise, and explore boosting the efficiency of seaports. The SZCone and BP also discussed partnering on green hydrogen projects.

About the corridor: The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) and the Port of Rotterdam Authority partnered in 2022 to establish the green sailing route, which is set to be operational by 2027. The two also partnered last September to reduce 20% to 30% of emissions from international shipping by 2030.
