Lobito corridor green hydrogen corridor.

A green-hydrogen and rail corridor linking the Atlantic to the copper belt.

The Lobito corridor connects Angola's Atlantic port at Lobito with the copper-cobalt belt of the southern Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia's North-Western province. The Global Gateway commitment funds renewable generation, electrolyser capacity, and corridor logistics — the rail upgrade and the export terminal — under a single envelope.

It is the largest single Global Gateway commitment in Africa to date, and the most prominent example of the EU's stated shift from project-by-project announcements to integrated, multi-country corridors. The project is being delivered alongside complementary commitments from the United States International Development Finance Corporation and the African Development Bank.
