Three wind farms totalling 530 MW will be developed in partnership with RES & First Nation communities to help power the first phase of EverWind Fuel’s mega-project in Point Tupper. EverWind is also planning the development of a further 2 GW of onshore wind energy, plus a 300 MW solar farm. Ammonia from Point Tupper will be exported to the EU, beginning in 2025.
Hy2gen’s latest ammonia project will feature 200 MW of electrolysers powered by offgrid wind and solar energy, producing 180,000 tonnes of renewable ammonia per year for export to the EU. Local wind developer Mexion Corporation and German development agency GIZ will partner with Hy2gen to proceed with feasibility studies.
The US Department of Energy has launched a new scheme to help “catalyze durable, bankable demand” for clean hydrogen & ammonia production. A request for information notice seeks feedback on potential demand-side measures the US government could implement to complement the regional Hydrogen Hubs program.
CIP has announced its strategic investment in CWP Global’s portfolio of hydrogen & ammonia mega-projects, acquiring a 26.67% stake in a key element of CWP’s green hydrogen business. In February, CIP acquired a majority stake in a CCS-based mega-project being developed in Louisiana by the Sustainable Fuels Group.
First Ammonia and the Port of Victoria have announced a partnership to produce renewable ammonia at the Port on Texas’ Gulf Coast. Electrolytic hydrogen feedstock will be produced via renewable energy, with the ammonia plant expected to be fully operational in 2025.
The pair will join forces to promote the adoption of low-carbon ammonia fuel in the maritime sector, with an initial focus on US inland waterways transportation. Amogy has also signed a new agreement to explore the potential retrofit of vessels in Skansi’s offshore service supply fleet with its ammonia-to-power technology system.
