Hydrogen from North Africa: Potential in Egypt, Tunisia & Co.
18.08.2025
In just a few weeks, the first wire Middle East Africa will open its doors in Cairo, Egypt. The region is considered one of the most important sources for green hydrogen exports from the 2030s onwards. This expectation is well-founded, as demonstrated by the first H2Global auction last year: the winner of the $400 million tender was an ammonia project in Egypt.

The economic and regulatory framework for metal processing industries is undergoing fundamental change. Rising CO₂ fees, stricter environmental legislation, and increasing cost pressure on primary raw materials require new strategies in the value chain.
Hydrogen ramp-up in Germany: Current status and priorities of the new BMWE
10.06.2025
With the expansion of the hydrogen core network, Germany is currently laying the foundations for an efficient supply of hydrogen in the country. At the same time, regional model initiatives are taking place in many places to establish practical hydrogen solutions and thus successfully build bridges to commercial use.
New Engineering Approaches for Adaptable, Autonomous Production Systems – Impulses for the Mechanical and Plant Engineering Sector
27.05.2025
In today’s industrial landscape—shaped by supply bottlenecks, workforce shortages, and fluctuating market demands—companies in mechanical and plant engineering, such as those represented at wire & Tube, face the challenge of making their production more resilient, flexible, and future-ready.
Hydrogen Production in the USA
12.05.2025
The hydrogen economy is gaining momentum worldwide, but approaches differ significantly between countries. Unlike Europe, which clearly focuses on green hydrogen, the USA pursues a pragmatic, technology-open approach. Currently, blue hydrogen plays a more significant role there. However, green hydrogen is seen as a long-term goal with growing importance.
