Four Indian renewable ammonia producers – ACME, Jakson Green, SCC and Oriana Power – have signed binding, 10-year supply contracts to deliver ammonia to domestic fertiliser manufacturers.
The Japanese government will provide financial support to the development of two ammonia import and supply hubs. Adjacent to its Hekinan power plant, JERA will lead development of a hub that will provide fuel ammonia for co-firing, plus distribution facilities for other industrial customers. In Hokkaido, IHI and Hokkaido Electric will develop a hub by 2030, with power generation and industrial customers in the area.
thyssenkrupp nucera will provide 300 MW in total of alkaline electrolysis capacity for Moeve’s Project Onuba, the first in several project phases in the “Andalusian Green Hydrogen Valley”. In India, nucera will execute the FEED study for a $1.3 billion, renewable ammonia mega project near Mulapeta Port, Andhra Pradesh.
A new study from the pair has found that, with the right regulatory settings, verified low-carbon ammonia marine fuel produced in China can achieve cost parity with VLSFO and LNG at current prices, even before additional subsidies or rewards are applied.
Amogy and Japan-based Hoku Infrastructure will identify opportunities to integrate Amogy’s ammonia-to-power technology in distributed power generation projects for data centers, industrial facilities, and other off-grid applications in Japan and Asia. Ammonia power solutions represent a potentially simpler pathway to low carbon facility operations compliant with local regulations, as demonstrated by GHD in a recent study.
Over 15 years, commencing FY2029, Samsung C&T will offtake ammonia produced at the Dhirubhai Ambani Green Energy Giga Complex in Jamnagar, Gujarat, northwest India.
The partners announced that 100% ammonia fuel combustion has been achieved during testing in Japan, matching “full-load conditions” for GE Vernova’s F-Class gas turbines.
Japan Bank for International Cooperation will lead a co-financed, billion dollar loan to JERA for investment in the Blue Point mega-project in the USA.
Envision has delivered its first shipment of renewable, RFNBO-compliant ammonia from its production site in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia to LOTTE Fine Chemical’s chemical import terminal in Ulsan, South Korea.
In our latest episode of Project Features, we explored progress at AM Green's AMGA-K1 renewable ammonia project in Kakinada, India, including architecture for renewable electricity supply, technology partners, RFNBO pre-certification and offtake agreements. India could potentially become a key global ammonia bunker fuel hub, and has an ecosystem of RFNBO-compliant ammonia production sites emerging.
