In our January episode of Project Features, we explored a now-operational renewable ammonia project in Uzbekistan, the historical use of water electrolysis for hydrogen, ammonia and fertilizer production, and future plans in the Central Asian nation.
Explore one of Uzbekistan’s first renewable ammonia projects, and the role of state-owned company Uzkimyosanoat in decarbonizing fertilizer production in the central Asian country.
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.
Jilin Electric Power Company has selected LONGi Hydrogen and SANY Hydrogen as electrolyser technology providers for a 180,000 tonnes per year renewable ammonia project in Da’an, northeast China. A growing list of renewable ammonia projects is being developed in the country, with many focused on decarbonised production of chemicals.
