Amogy’s ammonia-to-electrical power system will be used to charge Terox’s electric construction vehicles, thanks to a new commercial partnership in Norway. It will also be deployed onboard Hanwa Ocean’s ammonia-fueled supply vessels.
Meet H2SITE to explore its catalytic membrane technology for ammonia cracking, the Ammogen project in the UK, maritime applications and other opportunities.
Heidelberg Materials and partners will conduct a feasibility study on the use of ammonia as a hydrogen carrier for cement production. In the trials, a cracked ammonia fuel mix will power cement clinker production at Heidelberg’s Ribblesdale site in the UK.
OCI Global will deliver ammonia produced at its Texas plant to COMPO EXPERT in Germany, replacing 25% of its feedstock with low-carbon ammonia from this year. Meanwhile, the Indian Farmers Fertiliser Cooperative Limited (IFFCO) will offtake 200,000 tons of renewable ammonia per year from ACME’s under-development plant in Gopalpur, Odisha. This second deal will be facilitated by the use of “Internationally Transferred Mitigation Outcomes” (or ITMOs), a credit mechanism established by the Paris Agreement.
Black & Veatch has completed FEED work for Phase 1 of the Point Tupper project in Nova Scotia. With construction on track to begin later this year, ammonia production is expected to commence in 2026: 240,000 tons per year from electrolytic hydrogen powered by onshore renewables. EverWind Fuels also indicates that the project has been pre-certified by CertifHy™, meaning produced ammonia will meet compliance rules for exports to the EU.
Yara and Azane have received approval from Norway’s Directorate for Civil Protection to construct their first ammonia bunker facility at Fjord Base, with the bulk of bunker operations to provide offshore supply vessels with ammonia fuel. In the Netherlands, the Dutch EPA has granted a permit to OCI Global to construct a 60,000 ton ammonia storage tank in Rotterdam, based on requirements that will feature in the updated version of PGS-12.
Located in Stade, Germany, the €1 billion Hanseatic Energy Hub will serve as an import terminal for LNG and subsequently ammonia. Project partners announced this month that they have reached FID, with operations to begin in 2027. HEH joins a long list of ammonia import terminals planned along Germany’s coastline.
Amogy will deploy its ammonia-to-power systems onboard electrical Platform Supply Vessels (ePSVs) for Norway-based Green Ships Invest. As well as the new ePSV design, the pair will explore the use of Amogy’s technology onboard two additional vessel types. Amogy has also entered into a partnership with W-Industries for the fabrication, deployment and commissioning of its ammonia-to-power systems.
The Canadian and German governments have agreed to establish a bilateral funding window for hydrogen derivative exports between the two countries. H2Global will conduct “coordinated supply and demand side auctions”, with ammonia-producing projects on Canada’s Atlantic coast likely frontrunners for funding. In related news, Pattern Energy, lead developer of one of these export projects, will work with Mabanaft to explore a renewable ammonia supply chain between Newfoundland and Hamburg.
