CWP Global has joined an existing consortium with plans to build a 400,000 tons per year renewable ammonia project in Angola, powered by spare hydroelectric power generation.
RWE Supply & Trading will offtake 250,000 tons per year of AM Green Ammonia’s RFNBO-compliant ammonia from production sites in India. The ammonia is expected to be delivered from 2027.
Yara is expanding its capabilities for import of low-emission ammonia across Europe, with new infrastructure and a series of offtake agreements already announced in 2024. Hear more from Yara Clean Ammonia CEO Hans Olav Raen at our upcoming annual conference.
Ohmium will develop 300 MW of PEM electrolyser capacity for SwitcH2’s offshore hydrogen and ammonia production vessel. Moored off the coast of southern Europe, the 268m-long vessel will be powered by nearshore renewable energy, and the electrolysers fed by desalinated seawater, producing enough ammonia to “fuel multiple oceangoing vessels for a full year”.
LONGi Hydrogen announced the delivery of four alkaline electrolyser units to ACWA Power’s 20 MW, renewable ammonia pilot project in Uzbekistan. To help finance the project, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development committed to a $65 million assistance package in August.
Maritime & Port Authority Singapore announced that it will finalise ammonia bunkering standards for the island nation by next year.
In this Technology Insights article, we explore the different technology options for low-emission ammonia production from gas feedstock. What are the different energy, carbon capture, scale and maturity trade-offs that need to be considered? What technology choices are project developers currently making?
Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) has completed class approval testing for its HiMSEN Ammonia Dual-Fuel Engine, a four-stroke model that will be fed by direct high-pressure ammonia fuel injection.
BASF has successfully delivered its first shipment of BMBcertTM grade ammonia to Evonik. Produced via a “biomass balanced approach”, the ammonia will be used by Evonik to manufacture a range of products, including resins, paints, shoe soles, and gas pipes.
Yara has officially opened its new ammonia import terminal in Germany, with enough capacity to handle 3 million tons of ammonia imports per year.
