Envision has delivered its first shipment of renewable, RFNBO-compliant ammonia from its production site in Chifeng, Inner Mongolia to LOTTE Fine Chemical’s chemical import terminal in Ulsan, South Korea.
In our latest episode of Project Features, we explored progress at AM Green's AMGA-K1 renewable ammonia project in Kakinada, India, including architecture for renewable electricity supply, technology partners, RFNBO pre-certification and offtake agreements. India could potentially become a key global ammonia bunker fuel hub, and has an ecosystem of RFNBO-compliant ammonia production sites emerging.
India has joined Japan, Korea and the EU in setting an emissions threshold for renewable ammonia certification. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy will issue methodologies for measurement, reporting, monitoring, on-site verification, and certification.
Kevin Rouwenhorst reports back from the 7th CFAA International Symposium in Tokyo, plus significant progress on the ground for Idemitsu Kosan, NYK Line, Resonac, and IHI Corporation.
Great Oceans Green Ammonia is Sri Lanka’s “pioneering” renewable ammonia and methanol developer. 4 GW of offshore wind, onshore solar and battery storage will not only help decarbonise Sri Lanka’s power sector, but produce methanol and ammonia fuel: 500,000 tons per year by 2030. Sri Lanka sits directly on the primary east-west shipping corridor connecting Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and East Africa.
Duiker Clean Technologies and new partners Plant One have chosen the Port of Rotterdam as the location for the installation of the AMMONEX ammonia cracking pilot plant.
The Fertilizer Institute has released a new edition of its calculation methodology for the Verified Ammonia Carbon Intensity (VACI) certification scheme, expanding the program to include key ammonia derivatives for agricultural and industrial use.
To highlight the progress and current status of the AEA’s Ammonia Certification System pilot, we recently held an exploratory webinar session. Learn about key system elements, what the Certification System is designed to achieve.
Wärtsilä will provide its four-stroke, ammonia-powered engine to Skarv Shipping Solutions for deployment on a new timber transport vessel to be built in China. Delivery of the full equipment set – including fuel gas supply system, release mitigation system, and a selective catalytic reduction system for exhaust treatment – is anticipated in late 2026.
In our January episode of Project Features, we explored a now-operational renewable ammonia project in Uzbekistan, the historical use of water electrolysis for hydrogen, ammonia and fertilizer production, and future plans in the Central Asian nation.
