ISPT’s new report explores the design, technical, and safety considerations of a theoretical 550 km ammonia pipeline linking the Port of Rotterdam to Karlsruhe in Germany, carrying 7 million tons per year of ammonia.
Phase 1 of Envision’s project – with an annual ammonia production capacity of 300,000 tons – is set to come online very soon. Envision will begin offering certified renewable ammonia to both international and domestic markets from Q4 2025.
In our May Episode of Project Features, OQ Alternative Energy Dutco joined us to discuss progress on SalalaH2, a renewable ammonia export project under development on Oman’s southwestern coast. Technical specifications, shared infrastructure, and further decarbonization of existing OQ assets at Salalah were explored.
Marubeni will offtake about 250,000 tons per year of CCS-based ammonia from ExxonMobil’s Baytown Texas facility, to be co-fired at the Kobe power plant in Japan. Marubeni joins Trammo, ADNOC, Mitsubishi, Air Liquide and SK Inc. as project partners, with a series of offtake agreements already signed.
Lantmännen has signed a three year agreement with Sweden-based dairy co-op Arla for the supply, distribution and use of fossil-free fertilizers. In Germany, OCI Global has begun supplying chemical manufacturer Lanxess with lower-emission ammonia from Rotterdam, and will supply agricultural co-op RWZ with lower-emission fertilizers.
Amogy, GS Engineering & Construction, HD Hyundai Infracore, and the city of Pohang will collaborate to deploy a 1 MW ammonia-powered distributed power generation system in 2026, scaling up to a commercial, 40 MW system by 2028-29.
The concept design can deliver up to 210,000 tons of pipeline-quality hydrogen per year from ammonia imports, and will feature in a number of projects in Germany.
Adani Energy Solutions has had a $330 million transmission project approved that will supply power to its renewable hydrogen and ammonia project in Mundra, Gujarat. The first phase of the Mundra Green Hydrogen Hub will feature 1 million tons per year hydrogen production capacity, with ammonia to be utilized for coal co-firing, marine fuel, exports, and as a substitute for current feedstock imports into India.
The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism is in the process of finalising new guidelines for the safe importation of hydrogen and ammonia into Japan. The guidelines will identify key legislative considerations, outline key design and process considerations, and act as a useful starting point for relevant stakeholders to plan for new energy imports.
Brazilian solar developer Solatio has received approval for a 3 GW grid connection, connecting its new hydrogen & ammonia project to Brazil's renewables-dominated northeast grid. FID on the $4.7 billion project is due this year.
