GoSolar Energy: renewable ammonia-based fertiliser production in northern Arizona
By on August 19, 2025
US-based GoSolar Energy has announced plans to develop a large-scale Industrial complex, focused on the production of CCS-based and renewable ammonia for fertiliser production.

Located in northern Arizona, the complex will be connected to a new 42-inch natural gas pipeline with a daily capacity of up to 2.4 billion cubic feet. It will feature onsite power generation including up to 8 GW of solar and 1 GW wind – supported by long-duration energy storage – for electrolytic hydrogen production, and combined cycle gas turbines (CCGT). The gas pipeline is set to come online between Q4 2026 and Q4 2027, subject to agreements with interested fertiliser operators which GoSolar is actively seeking.
When complete, the complex will have a production capacity of up to 12 million tons of CCS-based ammonia and about 1.5 million tons of renewable ammonia per year. The complex will sit on a total of 15,000 acres and GoSolar has a “special agreement” with the local county which will fast-track permitting to within 4-6 months.
The complex will be strategically located with straightforward access to key transportation infrastructure including rail lines, interstate highways, trade port extension to California and natural gas pipelines for additional and backup power generation. There is also a potential to develop an ammonia pipeline to California and the Port of Long Beach in Los Angeles, enabling transportation for both domestic and export markets.
With abundant onsite renewable energy resources including micro-grid connections (upwards of 1,500 MW) and pending utility grid connections for up to 1,500 MW, the complex will (in addition to ammonia production) be able to support other energy-intensive industries, such as data centres and chemicals manufacturing (e.g. urea, phosphoric acid, nitric acid).
