Ethiopia will sign a Host Country Collaborative Agreement to launch the Gas-by-Rail Economic Corridor Initiative valued at $29 trillion. The project establishes a 73,500-kilometre freight railway network to move densified natural gas across 40 countries. Officials said the system will expand clean-energy access and reduce wood fuel use. Ethiopia will host the Ethio-Cluster industrial hub, with leaders planning a 2026 summit to advance cross-border protocols.
