A total of 593 million euro – about N$10.6 billion at the current exchange rate – was pledged today to Namibia in grants and concessionary loans at the COP27 climate summit in Egypt.
These streams of capital will be an essential bloodline required to build a green and blue economy, commented James Mnyupe, Namibia’s green hydrogen commissioner and economic advisor to Pres Hage Geingob.
