NH3 Clean Energy and Japanese trader ITOCHU will collaborate over the next two years to support the development of ammonia bunkering operations in the Pilbara by 2030.
Ammonia produced at BASF’s Ludwigshafen site will be consumed at OCI’s Geleen fertilizers manufacturing complex.
The pair are in advanced negotiations to cement a partnership that will de-risk and progress two key production projects: the Louisiana Clean Energy Complex in the USA, and NEOM in Saudi Arabia.
INPEX has officially opened the Kashiwazaki Hydrogen Park, featuring a CCUS-based hydrogen and ammonia demonstration plant. The project is focused on local customers for each of the facility’s products: hydrogen, electricity, and ammonia.
Following the publication of the AEA’s new report on ammonia gas detection, members of the task force that developed the report joined experts and AEA staff for a launch webinar. We discussed the key takeaways from the report, must-knows and first steps for deploying ammonia gas detection, common misconceptions, and the challenges ahead for effectively utilizing ammonia gas detection in new ammonia energy applications.
A new multi-year partnership between the two parties will see Samsung Heavy Industries manufacture Amogy’s ammonia-to-power systems in South Korea for distributed clean energy generation based on ammonia-cracking technology.
In our November episode of Project Features, Juwö Poroton and Ammonigy joined us to explore their “CO2-free brick production” project, demonstrating the use of cracked ammonia fuel to fire bricks in Wöllstein, Germany. Though hurdles remain for the deployment of the solution at the necessary scale, promising operational results and quality-checked final products were achieved, and progress is being made towards emissions mitigation.
Minbos Resources and Talus Renewable have signed an agreement for the joint development of the Capanda Green Ammonia Project in Angola. The project will be powered by hydroelectricity and is set to come online in 2028.
One of the key steps in project development remains the selection of the licensor for the renewable ammonia synthesis loop. We explore different technology offerings from leading licensors – including KBR, Topsoe, Thyssenkrupp Uhde, Casale, Stamicarbon, and GoodChina – as well as the growing list of projects where they are being deployed.
Today, the LEAF Initiative launched publicly at COP30, with an Action Statement that the AEA supports, identifying three priorities for collective action.
