275 MW of Plug’s electrolyzers will feature at Hy2gen’s Project Courant in Québec, Canada. Powered by hydroelectricity from Québec’s grid, the plant will supply locally-made ammonium nitrate explosives for the mining industry in Canada.
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.
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.
Technology provider Talus, certification provider CleanCounts (formerly M-RETS), and farmer’s co-operative Central Farm Service plan to deploy two modular ammonia synthesis plants in Minnesota, producing up to 20 tons per day of anhydrous ammonia for use as fertilizer by local farmers.
EverWind Fuels has secured a $175 million strategic investment from Nuveen Energy Infrastructure Credit, advancing 650-plus MW of onshore wind in Nova Scotia. The renewable energy is part of the first phase of the Point Tupper renewable ammonia project.
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.
Ammobia has raised $7.5 million for its modular Haber Bosch 2.0 technology, combining proprietary catalysts and sorbents for low-temperature ammonia synthesis. In New Zealand, Liquium has raised NZ$2 million to validate its novel ammonia synthesis catalysts under industrial conditions. And US-based geNH3 has also raised seed funding for its patented Calcium-mediated technology for ammonia synthesis, targeting 5 kg per day production capacity by mid-April.
