This project aims to produce 1.4 million metric tons of clean ammonia annually, using a combination of blue ammonia – produced from natural gas with carbon capture – and green ammonia, generated from renewable energy. The initiative represents a significant step towards decarbonizing the ammonia industry, providing a sustainable and cost-effective solution to meet the growing demand for cleaner energy sources.
The multi-year project will start with an initial capacity of 200 MW, expanding to 500 MW. Large-scale blue ammonia production will help achieve economies of scale, reducing costs and enhancing the viability of green ammonia. Ohmium’s PEM electrolyzers will play a crucial role in this venture by generating the green hydrogen required for the green ammonia segment of the project. The clean ammonia will be shipped to customers in Europe and Asia.
“We are looking forward to leveraging the efficiency, cost effectiveness and high purity of the hydrogen produced by Ohmium’s PEM electrolyzers for this exciting project,” said Jean Perarnaud, CEO of Ten08 Energy. “As grid and renewable energy capacity continue to expand, our project’s phased approach and Ohmium’s scalable solutions are poised to meet the growing demand for sustainable energy solutions.”
“Ohmium is excited to collaborate with Ten08 on this pioneering project,” said Arne Ballantine, Ohmium CEO. “Ammonia has enormous potential as a versatile energy carrier, transforming from a traditional fertilizer component to a critical fuel source. We are looking forward to partnering with Ten08 to address this important market and augment the production of green ammonia as infrastructure and demand evolve.”
