- Within the energy sector, oil companies can gain a competitive advantage by reducing their carbon footprint.
- The result of our investigation is that in North Africa, PV is a realistic option to supply power for oil field operations.
- The development of large PV power hubs in Saharan Africa such as the pioneering Benban project in Egypt will enable the emergence of large green hydrogen production units.
- Electrification/power switching in North African oil fields will be a key step to secure the existence of the local hydrocarbon industry through the energy transition.
