NatWest’s five-year Climate for Transition (CFT) framework will see the UK bank finance £200 billion worth of investments aligned with climate and transition focused finance. Low carbon fuels such as CCS-based and renewable hydrogen and ammonia feature prominently in the framework.
Hynfra will lead a consortium of Polish and Japanese partners to develop a solid oxide electrolysis technology platform for the production of electrolytic hydrogen and ammonia, with a demonstrator to be opened in Poland next year.
Located in Yanbu, a strategically-positioned port city on the Red Sea, 4 GW of electrolysis will feed the production of 400,000 tons of renewable hydrogen per year, or more than 2.2 million tons of renewable ammonia – twice the size of the under-construction NEOM project.
Various elements – different definitions for “green” hydrogen, subsidy structures, and transportation & logistics costs – all contribute to the gap between discovered prices for the H2Global and SECI renewable ammonia auctions. More SECI auction results are expected in the coming days and weeks.
A new joint venture between AFC Energy and Industrial Chemicals Group will use AFC Energy’s proprietary ammonia cracking technology to produce and deliver high purity hydrogen to the UK market at competitive prices.
In our recent episode of Project Features, we explored the outcomes from a recent ammonia bunkering demonstration at the Port of Rotterdam. With twelve ammonia transfer and bunkering demonstrations occurring in nine global locations since 2024, where does the Port Readiness Level for ammonia bunkering stand in Rotterdam and elsewhere, what are the key technical learnings, and what gaps remain?
The European Commission has unveiled the Hydrogen and Gas Market Directive which in addition to existing regulations on renewable fuels of non-biological origin (RFNBO) set out in the Renewable Energy Directive, completes the policy framework for the sector on the European continent.
Ammonigy, Heraeus Precious Metals and the Technical University of Darmstadt have partnered to demonstrate operations using cracked ammonia fuel in a four-stroke MAN test engine. The performance and efficiency of the test engine when running on ammonia-hydrogen fuel was comparable to natural gas operations, and use of an exhaust aftertreatment system reduced potentially harmful nitrogen-based emissions to near-zero levels.
