Yara is investigating producing renewable hydrogen to feed its ammonia production process, which will reduce emissions produced by the facility. However, a scan of published materials shows that AGTs are just one aspect of IHI’s activity in the ammonia energy arena. This project has the potential to ‘unlock’ the value of vast areas of vacant Pilbara land by supporting the development of a new industry that captures solar energy for conversion to hydrogen and other valuable products. In Australia, ARENA awarded AU $995,000 (US $0.6 million) to Yara and ENGIE for their solar ammonia pilot at Yara Pilbara. Please agree to the privacy policy terms. “Norway, with its high number of vessels using LNG or alternative fuels, with high volumes of green energy, and the cheapest electrical power in Europe, is probably the perfect arena for the world’s first market for green ammonia,” Lundberg stated. There is so much hydrogen news coming out of Australia that it is hard to keep up. These are at opposite ends of the low-carbon spectrum: Leigh Creek Energy's in-situ gasification (ISG) coal-to-ammonia plant; and Austom Hydrogen's 3.6 GW green hydrogen export project. Google's, Australian Renewable Energy Agency © 2020, Yara Pilbara Renewable Ammonia Feasibility Study. The project is the result of a Nordic industrial collaboration group founded from the Zeeds (Zero Emissions Energy Distribution at Sea) initiative. “As an energy transition enabler, ENGIE is heartened by ARENA’s support for the joint project with Yara to decarbonise its ammonia production. Michael Mazengarb Posted on 8 May 2020 8 May 2020 0 Comments share On February 5, Yara and ENGIE agreed to carry out a feasibility study together, an important step in realizing “green… With Norwegian government support worth 46.3 million NOK (4.4 million EUR), the partnership aims to build what will be the world's first green ammonia fuelled tanker. Green hydrogen is still clawing its way into the mainstream and here comes yet another powerful new decarbonization trend: green ammonia. This is the first of two articles about the event; this article recaps the interactive panel sessions and the second article will highlight selected presentations. The proposed project aims to progress the commercialisation of green hydrogen production for domestic and international use. Leading fertilizer company Yara plans to electrify fully its ammonia plant in Porsgrunn, Norway with the potential to cut 800,000 tonnes of CO 2 per year, equivalent to the emissions from 300,000 passenger cars. As if to prove the point, two developers in two weeks have each announced hydrogen projects that could produce a million tons per year of ammonia. The story said that “Agencies such as the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) made it clear during the year that the country intends to build on [its historical] position” as a supplier of fossil energy to countries such as Japan. The federal government of Australia has given Major Project Status to the Asian Renewable Energy Hub, which it said will include “the world’s largest wind and solar electricity plant,” producing green hydrogen and ammonia. IFCo / OCI Wever update: still working on it. Yara is working towards making carbon-free fertilizer, and clean hydrogen is the major enabler for making CO2-free or “green” ammonia, which is the key ingredient for “green” fertilizer. While this project begins small, with a pilot-scale 20,000 ton per year green ammonia plant selling into domestic markets, it could lead to a 1,000,000 ton per year (1.5 GW capacity), export-oriented green ammonia plant. Not a current member. The technology group Wärtsilä and Grieg Edge, the innovation hub of Norwegian shipping group Grieg Star, are jointly running a project to launch an ammonia-fueled tanker producing no greenhouse gas emissions by 2024. All Rights Reserved. And while the study’s focus is Australia, “with costs in AUD and based on Australian conditions,” its lead author says that “much of the information and many of its findings are expected to hold independent of jurisdiction.”, One of Ammonia Energy’s “top ten” stories of 2017 described Australia’s early steps toward export of renewable hydrogen in the form of green ammonia. It reaches many interesting conclusions, not the least of which is that hydrogen, and by explicit extension, ammonia, is the key option for long-cycle storage. Most ammonia sold today is what he calls “black ammonia”, because fossil fuels are used to make it. ARENA press release, Queensland green ammonia plant could use renewable hydrogen, September 30, 2019 As Incitec Pivot explained in its announcement this week: If implemented, the project is expected to accelerate the development of industrial-scale electrolysis equipment, helping to drive down the cost of renewable hydrogen production. The MS Green Ammonia project is currently underway to launch an ammonia-fuelled tanker producing no greenhouse gas emissions by 2024. Michael Mazengarb Posted on 8 May 2020 8 May 2020 0 Comments share Green Ammonia By switching to renewable electricity to make ammonia we could save over 40 million tonnes of CO2 each year in Europe alone, or over 360 million tonnes worldwide. Green ammonia production is where the process of making ammonia is 100% renewable and carbon-free. The facility could potentially become the world’s largest green ammonia plant powered by renewable hydrogen featuring a solar farm of up to 210 MW along with a 160 MW hydrogen electrolyser. UPDATE - ARENA backs BP Australia green hydrogen study in Geraldton. In collaboration with global energy company ENGIE, the Yara Pilbara Renewable Ammonia Feasibility Study will investigate the feasibility of producing renewable hydrogen via electrolysis powered by onsite solar PV. These are big companies, operating in regions with excellent renewable resources, making significant investments in their future. Project Feasibility Study for a Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Project On behalf of the Australian Government, the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) has today provided $1.9 million in funding to Queensland Nitrates Pty Ltd (QNP) to assess the feasibility of the construction and operation of a renewable ammonia plant at its existing facility near Moura in Central Queensland. In Australia, it is Incitec Pivot, "the second largest supplier of explosives products and services in the world," and Wesfarmers, "the largest Australian company by revenue," according to Wikipedia. Yara’s objective is that for the demonstration plant, up to three per cent of the hydrogen consumed on site will be renewable hydrogen. In Chile, it is Enaex, a major ammonium nitrate manufacturer, supplying explosives to the mining industry. The theme of the accompanying press release is “sharpening our focus,” and indeed the agency articulates just three investment priorities: “integrating renewables into the electricity system;” “accelerating the growth of a hydrogen industry;” and “supporting industry to reduce emissions.” The prioritization of hydrogen – and with it, ammonia as a possible hydrogen carrier – is a new development for ARENA. Japan’s Green Ammonia Consortium, an industry body dedicated to building “a value chain from supply to use of CO2-free ammonia,” launched its Web site on December 5. Then, the renewable energy farms and electrolyzers can be scaled-up in stages, eventually replacing all the natural gas requirements and completing the conversion of a fossil asset to a renewable asset. The study will be the first step on the path to achieving commercial scale production of renewable hydrogen and ammonia for export. Here is a summary of four new projects that propose to use electrolyzers, fed by renewable power, to produce hydrogen for ammonia production. While this project begins small, with a pilot-scale 20,000 ton per year green ammonia plant selling into domestic markets, it could lead to a 1,000,000 ton per year (1.5 GW capacity), export-oriented green ammonia plant. In Australia, ARENA awarded AU $995,000 (US $0.6 million) to Yara and ENGIE for their solar ammonia pilot at Yara Pilbara. Professor MacFarlane says he wrote the paper for Joule to set out the three-step process for manufacturing sustainable ammonia at scale, as a way of demonstrating how an ammonia economy could be established by 2050. Integrated projects like the green hydrogen plant at Yara Pilbara would allow for a real-world, real-time analysis of costs and processes. The conference tagline is “Building an energy export industry using Green Ammonia.” Its themes this year will be “green ammonia production — jobs for the regions;” “ammonia as maritime bunker fuel;” and “ammonia certification schemes.” These themes included: 1) Building an energy export industry using green ammonia; 2) Green ammonia as a maritime bunker fuel; and 3) Green ammonia as grid scale energy storage – a battery to the nation. Ammonia is the second most widely used inorganic chemical in the world, with a global consumption level that Reshef estimated at 180 million tons per year. ARENA announced funding to Yara Pilbara Fertilisers Pty Ltd to support a feasibility study for the production of renewable hydrogen and ammonia. This initial amount of green ammonia replaces 3% of the plant’s fossil fuel capacity. Action. The Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) said on Monday it was backing a study into building a green ammonia facility with a solar farm at Incitec Pivot’s Moranbah ammonia plant in Queensland. At the federal level, ARENA announced that its AU$ 70 million funding round for large-scale, “shovel-ready,” renewable hydrogen projects received applications representing over $3 billion of commercial investments. The Feasibility Study will inform a project to generate renewable hydrogen that will displace up to 30,000 tonnes per year of ammonia that Yara currently derives from fossil fuels. The proposed plant would produce 20 per cent of the ammonia used by QNP, which is currently based on hydrogen produced from natural gas. “As an energy transition enabler, ENGIE is heartened by ARENA’s support for the joint project with Yara to decarbonise its ammonia production. Home > Projects > Yara Pilbara Renewable Ammonia Feasibility Study. In New Zealand, the Provincial Growth Fund gave NZ $19.9 million (US $11.3 million) to Ballance-Agri Nutrients and Hiringa Energy for their wind-fed ammonia plant at Kapuni. Each aims to make its business "future-proof." Production from the electrified ammonia unit would be some 500,000 tonnes per year of green ammonia. ARENA took a tangible step in this direction on December 20, 2017 with the release of a Request for Proposal for a AUD$20 million (USD$16 million) renewable hydrogen R&D funding program. At the state level, Tasmania has released its draft plan to increase renewables to 200% of its electricity use by 2040. This week, ARENA announced funding for the Geraldton Export-Scale Renewable Investment (GERI) Feasibility Study, led by BP Australia. We do this by funding projects and sharing knowledge that drives innovation and commercialisation of renewable energy technologies. In the long term, Yara is aiming to produce hydrogen and ammonia entirely through renewable energy. With government support worth 46,3 million NOK, a Norwegian partnership aims to build the world’s first green ammonia fueled tanker – to ship green ammonia. Connecting Grids Yara Pilbara (Yara) is the world’s leading ammonia and fertiliser production company with approximately 20 per cent market share of the global ammonia trade. The transition from fossil ammonia to renewable ammonia is underway. Included in the scope, per ARENA’s 2017 Investment Plan, could be “demonstration of renewable production methods for transportable energy storage options (such as hydrogen or ammonia).”. Backed by $980,000 in ARENA funding, the second project proposes building a green ammonia facility at Intec Pivot’s existing Moranbah ammonia plant. The technology group Wärtsilä and Grieg Edge, the innovation hub of Norwegian shipping group Grieg Star, are jointly running a project to launch an ammonia-fueled tanker producing no greenhouse gas emissions by 2024. The Yara Pilbara pilot plant will make 30,000 tons of green ammonia that would otherwise be made with fossil fuels. ARENA chips in $1.7m into feasibility study into the use of renewable hydrogen in the production of ammonia. Read the release. The hydrogen is then used to feed an ammonia synthesis process to produce ammonia.

Green ammonia, at the crossroads of crop nutrition and energy, will decarbonize the crop nutrition sector; It also stands as the easiest low-carbon energy carrier in the energy transition. In truth, though, many challenges remain to building out a hydrogen economy, including processes related to producing carbon-free hydrogen in the first place. For the future, the laws of physical allow us to create it from clean electricity for the same cost per BTU as hydrogen, but the ammonia will be much cheaper to deliver to user due to the much better energy density (liquid ammonia has triple the energy density of 5,000 psi gaseous H2). Renewable hydrogen can be introduced in small amounts, displacing only a fraction of the plant's natural gas consumption but demonstrating and de-risking the technologies. This week, ARENA announced funding for the Geraldton Export-Scale Renewable Investment (GERI) Feasibility Study, led by BP Australia.
