Today, I had the honour of speaking at the @IFEMAconference about the role that #hydrogen plays in driving the future of the energy transition. A central point of the discussion was the scalability of low-carbon (blue) #ammonia production over renewable (green) ammonia, thanks to readily available and adaptable technology, critical for rapid emission reductions. To achieve this at scale, the following is needed: 1. Access to abundant, competitively priced renewable energy. With a global ammonia network, diversified sourcing and economies of scale, Yara Clean Ammonia (YCA) can keep the costs down in the supply chain delivering low-emission ammonia at competitive prices. 2. Strategic collaborations, like our partnership with @Cepsa, to unlock the green corridor from Andalucía to Rotterdam and ensure low-emission molecules are available in ports worldwide for deep-sea ships. 3. Supply chain. Yara Clean Ammonia operates the world’s largest ammonia network with 15 ships and 18 terminals. We will use this unique position to further grow and strengthen our leading global position unlocking the clean ammonia value chains together with our partners. 4. Safety. With over 100 years of experience in ammonia production, shipping, and handling, Yara Clean Ammonia is dedicated to sharing best practices across the industry. These efforts are central to our mission and integral to advancing the hydrogen economy. Thank you to the event organizers and fellow panellists for an enriching discussion. It was a pleasure to join the discussion today and hear from so many key players across industry. 🤝 #EnergyTransition #HydrogenEconomy #YaraCleanAmmonia

"Renewable ammonia is an important part of the decarbonization puzzle, however developing it at scale takes time. As the world is rapidly approaching 2030, we are also working to produce low-carbon ammonia with CCS to enable the hydrogen economy and develop the emerging markets for low-emission ammonia," says Hans-Olav Raen, CEO of Yara Clean Ammonia.   Last week, we celebrated the inauguration of our 24 MW renewable hydrogen plant at Herøya Industrial Park in Porsgrunn. Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, who was with us at the project's launch two years ago, returned to witness its realization. 🌿 Once fully operational, this plant will produce around 20,000 tonnes of renewable ammonia annually, cutting 41,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions from the site. As the largest facility of its kind in Europe, it plays a crucial role in enhancing production whilst cutting emissions. 🌍🎯 We recognize that scaling up production won’t be easy. The green transition will require investments, predictable framework conditions, massive build-out of renewable energy and grid, continuously advancing technology, and a maturing market where demand and supply are developed simultaneously. 💚 Learn how Skrei is creating renewable ammonia and contributing to a sustainable future. 👇

🎊Yara Clean Ammonia's renewable hydrogen plant at Herøya, Norway is officially open!🎊      We have reached a major milestone in our decarbonization journey by producing hydrogen and ammonia with renewable energy. 🎉  Made with electrolysis of water and renewable energy, the hydrogen produced at the plant will replace natural gas as feedstock and annually cut 41,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions from the site, marking an important step in our decarbonization journey! ♻️    💚 This project has come to life thanks to partnerships across the whole value chain. A big thank you to Lantmännen, who’s been committed as a customer since the very start. The hurdles we’ve encountered in the project have been solved thanks to trust and close cooperation with our EPC-contractor Linde Engineering and PEM electrolyser manufacturer ITM Power. We also want to thank Enova SF for contributing with a grant, enabling us to reach the investment decision.   Yara Clean Ammonia is also working to enable the hydrogen economy by producing low-carbon ammonia with carbon capture & storage (CCS). Essential to reach the Paris Agreement, low-carbon ammonia and CCS is a critical step to decarbonize rapidly and profitably. While Yara Clean Ammonia is uniquely positioned to deliver decarbonized solutions quickly and at scale, the green transition will require capital, predictable framework conditions, funding, affordable renewable energy, and a market where demand and supply are developed simultaneously. 🤝       Learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dASBQrRD
