Indian producer AM Green will supply renewable ammonia to Germany for 10 years from 2029, thanks to €585 million in funding from H2Global. The certainty in offtake allows AM Green to proceed with Phase 2 of its Kakinada project.
Australia-based Hysata will work with InterContinental Energy on the potential integration of its patented capillary-fed electrolyser technology in InterContinental’s giga-scale projects. Hysata recently launched a new production line at its HQ in Port Kembla, received its first commercial order, and has been working with Saudi-based ACWA on a commercial-scale demonstration of its technology in Saudi Arabia.
Madhya Bharat Agro Products will accept delivery from the winning bidder of 54,000 tons per year of renewable ammonia, based on a 10-year Green Ammonia Purchase Agreement (GAPA), in which SECI acts as an “intermediary procurer”.
Azane Fuel Solutions has secured Yara-produced ammonia for use in a new fuel supply chain, feeding truck-to-ship bunkering operations for Equinor owned and operated vessels.
GMA, RMI and 3degrees have launched the Green Ammonia Buyers Alliance (GABA), which will allow buyers to purchase Environmental Attribute Certificates (EACs) directly from verified low or zero-carbon ammonia/fertiliser producers.
CWP Global and Mauritania’s Ministry of Energy and Petroleum signed a long-term contractual framework this month, setting out the financial, economic, and developmental aspects for the AMAN mega-project. Also developing a mega-project in Mauritania, Denmark-based GreenGo Energy has signed a new partnership with China-based Shuangliang for supply of green power-to-hydrogen systems (including electrolysers).
Reaching FID in March this year, the small-scale plant will produce renewable fertiliser for the onsite coffee plantation, as well as medical-grade oxygen for an adjacent hospital. Finance and support has been provided by the Germany-based PDP initiative, as well as UNIDO’s Accelerate-to-Demonstrate program.
In the latest edition of its annual Hydrogen Compass report, the Hydrogen Council has presented a growing and maturing low-carbon production landscape. 90% of the $130 billion, 6.9 million tons per year capacity pipeline is under construction or operational, and ammonia accounts for 43% of confirmed offtake. The report also found that energy security and food system resilience now sit alongside decarbonization and industrial growth potential as key drivers for low-carbon hydrogen uptake.
Ship-to ship-bunkering using the newly-converted ammonia transport & bunker vessel Sheng Hang Yong Le is one of the last pieces of a renewable ammonia fuel supply chain for ADF and partners Energy China and CMB.TECH to demonstrate in Northern China.
Yara takes next steps towards decarbonising ammonia production at its Sluiskil plant using CCS, facilitated by Northern Lights. 800,000 tons per year will be permanently sequestered for 15 years.
