Following the then-record delivery price submitted in early August, Jakson Green has now committed to supply 85,000 tons per year of renewable ammonia over a ten-year fixed contract, with a fixed delivery price of approximately $580 per ton. Three more price discovery data points were also announced last week, meaning we now have six of the thirteen subsidy winners announced.

Gas-based reforming for low-emission ammonia production: ATR, POX, and two-step reforming

Kevin Rouwenhorst August 06, 2025

Current global ammonia production is mostly based on gas-fed, two-stage reforming processs. Decarbonization of this existing production capacity – as well as new newbuild low-emission capacity also based on gas – can utilize an industrially-proven suite of alternative technologies and processes, including autothermal reforming, and partial oxidation combined with CCS. This article discusses some of the technologies available from various tech providers, and reference projects in operation.
