ABL to support the decarbonisation of Egyptian aviation
Global energy and marine consultancy ABL has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Egyptian Holding Company for Airports and Air Navigation (EHCAAN) to realise carbon-reduction initiatives for Egypt’s aviation industry.
As part of the MoU, signed on the 3rd February this year, the parties commit to collaboration and technical support in the research and development (R&D) of methodologies for the decarbonisation, the introduction of carbon credits and other carbon-reduction initiatives. The parties will also support each other in the technology transfer, training, capacity building and other technical initiatives to support Egypt’s roadmap to reducing the Egyptian aviation industry’s carbon footprint.
ABL’s operations in Cairo, Egypt, and originally known and trading as LOC Egypt, will lead the future collaboration on this with EHCAAN.

Under the scope of work, ABL Egypt will support in exploring the technical and commercial feasibility of potential carbon-reduction technologies. These include, but are not limited to, the hybridisation and modernisation of process and equipment to integrate renewable energy resource and drive overall efficiencies, the integration of solar PV, and the potential of green hydrogen.
“Aviation is one of the most significant contributors to carbon dioxide emissions. We are honoured to partner with EHCAAN to explore potential methods, alternative fuels, and a roadmap for emissions reduction in its national aviation programme. Our track record in Egyptian energy transition combined with our global expertise across key technologies – including hydrogen and power-to-x, solar PV, emissions consulting, and more – make ABL a natural choice to support aviation on its road to net-zero.”
