Fortescue, Origin assess green ammonia, hydrogen plants in Australia's Tasmania 11/17/2020 Fortescue Metals Group and Origin Energy Ltd announced separate plans to assess building ammonia export plants in the Australian island state of Tasmania, as both seek to tap opportunities in renewable energy. The panels work by converting photons or ordinary light rays to electricity. If feasible, the proposed green ammonia facility would include up to a 160 MW electrolyser and 210 MW solar farm co-located at Moranbah. P. O. Erdogan says Caucasus platform can turn new page in Turkey-Armenia ties -NTV. “(It) offers the opportunity to export South Australia’s abundant solar and wind resources to support deep decarbonisation in the global energy, industrial and shipping sectors,” he said. The Eyre Peninsula Gateway Project is the first in a pipeline of several green hydrogen and green ammonia projects being developed by H2U and will be built in two stages. The consortium had earlier considered trying to export the electricity as far away as Singapore by undersea cables, which would probably have been feasible. Dr. Attilio Pigneri, CEO of H2U: “This project is an important milestone for Australia’s shift to a reliable renewable energy future. So from the point of view of green electricity production, the ideal place to put 30,000 acres worth of solar panels is in the Australian outback. The proposed plant would produce 20 per cent of the ammonia used by QNP, which is currently based on hydrogen produced from natural gas. At the moment, at least, solar panels are space hogs, and they obviously generate more electricity under very sunny conditions than under cloudy ones. A far greater opportunity, however, is in the development of new markets for ammonia. In the last week alone, three major project announcements signal the availability of millions of tons of low-carbon ammonia this decade, and enthusiasm for rapid and complete transformation of the industry. In order to execute these initiatives, CF is collaborating with leading technology companies, and has signed Memorandums of Understanding with ThyssenKrupp and Haldor Topsoe. New zero-carbon uses for green ammonia 21 The ammonia, which, although it is toxic is not volatile (unlike the fertilizer, ammonium nitrate, which blew up Beirut this summer), can be liquefied at -33 degrees, and there is already an infrastructure for doing so and for transporting it. The South Australian government is looking to establish the state as a green hydrogen export hub with its backing of, what it claims will be, the world’s largest green ammonia plant. BP Australia study to investigate green hydrogen and ammonia opportunity. The first project of the initiatives, Eyre Peninsula GatewayTM in southwest South Australia is planned to commence commercial production of green hydrogen and ammonia towards the end of 2022. The project will also involve installation of 1,743 wind turbines, each nearly a thousand feet tall. If ammonia can replace coal in China, for instance, that development in itself would save the earth. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology climate classification, a modification of Köppen’s classification. CF Industries Announces Commitment to Clean Energy Economy, Iberdrola y Fertiberia sitúan a España a la vanguardia del hidrógeno verde en Europa: proyectan 800 MW, con una inversión de 1.800 millones hasta 2027, Spain Could Become Green-Ammonia Exporter With Hydrogen Project, Job-creating energy hub given Major Status backing, US$36 billion Asian Renewable Energy Hub receives double boost. Engineers are working on ensuring that it also does not produce nitrogen oxides, which are a pollutant that contributes to ozone. The Morrison Government is helping fast-track the world’s largest green hydrogen and ammonia production facility, which is expected to create tens of thousands of jobs in Western Australia …. Low-carbon ammonia is the critical enabler for storage and transport of hydrogen and thus has a major role to play,” said Tony Will, president and chief executive officer, CF Industries Holdings, Inc. “Today’s commitment to decarbonize the world’s largest ammonia production network positions CF Industries at the forefront of clean hydrogen supply” …. The company will use the money to conduct a feasibility study that will assess the potential for making green hydrogen at its ammonia production site in Pilbara, Western Australia, through electrolysis. A project to build the world’s largest green ammonia plant in South Australia has been launched. The announcement mentions three projects, at Fertiberia’s plants at Puertollano in Ciudad Real and Palos de la Frontera in Huelva, and indicates that they could be implemented between 2023 and 2027. I presume that is what I am getting in Michigan in December and January. The initial stage of the A$240 million H2U Eyre Peninsula Gateway Hydrogen Project will include the installation of a 75MW electrolyser near the regional city of Whyalla, capable of producing enough hydrogen to create 40,000 tonnes of ammonia each year. This begins with building a 20,000 ton per year green ammonia pilot at its existing plant in Donaldsonville, Louisiana, one of the world’s largest nitrogen complexes, with a four million ton per year ammonia capacity. Backed by $980,000 in ARENA funding, the second project proposes building a green ammonia facility at Intec Pivot’s existing Moranbah ammonia plant. Last month, we wrote about the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and its new investment plan, saying that it is “ARENA’s hope that Australia’s existing ammonia industry will help overcome the ‘chicken-and-egg challenge of matching infrastructure development wit… Like Enaex in Chile, both of these projects belong to a major ammonium nitrate manufacturer studying the feasibility of adding green ammonia to its existing process. “This is allowing us to dream that green hydrogen could be exported through ammonia so we could move renewable energy from one continent to another in a safe and efficient way.”, The European Union wants green hydrogen to replace oil, natural gas and coal as a fuel source for heavy industry …, “The production of green hydrogen through electrolysis, using renewable energy, is a key factor in the path toward achieving climate neutrality by 2050,” said Iberdrola Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Ignacio Sanchez Galan. Under cloudy conditions, solar panels might only have an efficiency of 10%. The initial commercial-scale Demonstrator Stage will integrate a 75 MW electrolysis plant and a 120 tonnes per day ammonia production facility. Green, or renewable, hydrogen is made by an electrolysis plant powered by renewable energy that splits water into hydrogen and oxygen. A full list of members can be found in the Member Directory. Erdogan says Caucasus platform can turn new page in Turkey-Armenia ties -NTV. Personal checks should be made out to Juan Cole and sent to me at: Juan Cole In Sept 2019, The Australian government agreed to provide A$2.9 million ($2 million) for two studies into using solar and wind power to produce hydrogen for green ammonia. The cost of this pilot plant was not specified but it will fit comfortably, alongside the regular maintenance and improvement projects, “within the company’s annual capital expenditure budget, which has ranged from $400-$450 million per year.”, Today’s announcement goes much further than one pilot project, however. Considered one of the most prospective chemical carriers of hydrogen, green ammonia – a chemical compound of nitrogen and renewable hydrogen – is also a potential fuel for large-scale power stations, making it an attractive export opportunity. Ann Arbor (Informed Comment) – The Asian Renewable Energy Hub is planning a $16 billion solar and wind project in the part of the Australian outback known as Pilbara, that is, in the north of the West Australian desert. The study will consider a 50 to 60 megawatt electrolyser powered by more than 100MW of solar panels to produce enough hydrogen for 28,000 tonnes a year of ammonia. The Group includes The Hydrogen Utility (H2U), an Australia-based developer of green hydrogen and green ammonia projects using power from renewable energy. (Rapier wrote before the recent decision of the consortium to abandon the plans for underwater cables and to go with liquefied ammonia instead). The current Green Ammonia projects for energy storage: Fortescue, Origin assess green ammonia, hydrogen plants in Australia's Tasmania 17/11/2020. They have now decided instead to use the renewable electricity generated by the solar panels and the wind turbines for hydrolysis, producing hydrogen and oxygen out of water (H2O). Also last week, the project won environmental approval from Western Australia for the original proposal (15 GW, with undersea cable for export). The Renewable Energy Hub is looking at 2027 for coming online.
