Dangote Group has awarded a contract to Spanish engineering firm T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas for the supply of hydrogen production equipment for its $4 billion fertiliser plant under development in Ethiopia.<\/p>\n
The contract, announced on October 28, 2026, covers the design, procurement, manufacturing and supply of two hydrogen production reformers for the ammonia and urea fertiliser complex being developed in partnership with Ethiopian Investment Holdings (EIH).<\/p>\n
The development marks another milestone in the Nigerian conglomerate\u2019s expansion into Ethiopia\u2019s industrial sector, as it seeks to strengthen its fertiliser production capacity across Africa.<\/p>\n
The project is located in Gode, in Ethiopia\u2019s Somali Region, approximately 1,200 kilometres southeast of Addis Ababa.<\/p>\n
The contract will be executed by TR-Technical, a division of T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas specialising in heat-transfer equipment.<\/p>\n
The company will supply two hydrogen production reformers with a combined production capacity exceeding 200,000 normal cubic metres of hydrogen per hour.<\/p>\n
The contract also strengthens T\u00e9cnicas Reunidas\u2019 presence in Africa\u2019s industrial sector, particularly in hydrogen production technology.<\/p>\n
The Gode fertiliser complex is designed to produce up to three million tonnes of urea annually, positioning it among Africa\u2019s major fertiliser manufacturing facilities.<\/p>\n
The project is being developed through a partnership between Dangote Group and EIH, Ethiopia\u2019s state-owned investment holding company.<\/p>\n
The project is also expected to strengthen domestic agricultural supply chains and create opportunities for exports to neighbouring African markets.<\/p>\n
