Tarita Green Energy plans to develop a 40,000 tons per year solar-powered renewable ammonia project to be used for fertilizer production for the local agricultural industry.
The Moroccan government has extended land allocation offers and streamlined approvals processes to the developers of four new ammonia projects in the country’s south.
thyssenkrupp Uhde will supply technology for decarbonising three existing ammonia & urea plants operated by Misr Fertilizers Production Company (MOPCO) on the Nile Delta. This includes electrolysis capacity to feed the production of 150,000 tons per year of renewable ammonia, with Yara Clean Ammonia already committed as offtaker.
H2 Global Energy and its development partners are progressing a range of renewable hydrogen and derivatives projects across the Middle Eastern and North Africa region, including renewable ammonia mega-projects in Jordan and Egypt.
UAE-Moroccan developer Dahamco is planning a $25 billion, multi-million ton per year renewable ammonia project at the Port of Dhakla on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. The first phase will feature an investment of $4 billion and produce nearly one million tons of ammonia per year.
We explore Namibia’s vision of a sprawling hydrogen ecosystem. The country plans to leverage its competitive wind and solar energy potential and strategic coastal location to produce electrolytic hydrogen and ammonia for the global market. We also highlight some of the key projects and partnerships already underway, and some key bottlenecks that must be overcome.
TotalEnergies, Eren, CIP and A.P. Moller have launched a large-scale renewable energy project which will feature solar-powered electrolytic hydrogen and ammonia production in the Guelmim-Oued Noun region near the Atlantic coast in Morocco. State-owned fertiliser giant OCP Group has also signed agreements with Engie, Bpifrance and the French Development Agency to develop renewable projects and sustainable agriculture in Morocco.
Both have announced partnerships and production projects aimed at the decarbonisation of steel production. Utilizing a similar approach from their large-scale ammonia projects, the pair will develop hubs in Mauritania and Brazil, producing hot-briquetted iron for export to Europe.
