Brazil to Construct Nation’s Largest 4 GW Solar Power Plant in Piauí to Boost Green Hydrogen and Ammonia Production In a landmark agreement, Pedro Vaquer, CEO of Solatio, and Rafael Fonteles, Governor of Piauí, have announced the construction of Brazil’s largest photovoltaic (PV) project. Scheduled to begin in 2025, this 4 GW solar power plant will be located in the Exportation Free Zone of Parnaíba. The ambitious $1.98 billion project is set to bolster the hydrogen production industry for ammonia manufacturing in Parnaíba. The initial 3 GW phase of the solar plant is expected to be completed between mid-2025 and 2028. Solatio revealed in a press release that it has secured an environmental license to produce 11.4 GW of […] Read the full story here: https://lnkd.in/danrX5ys #solarenergy #alternativeenergy #solarpv #pvsolar #photovoltaic #cleanenergy #cleantech #climatechange #middleeast #africa #india #asiapacific #asia #america #brazil #greenammonia #greenhydrogen #latinamerica #solarenergy #southamerica

Breaking News :Green Power Rectifiers Power The World’s Largest Green Hydrogen-Ammonia Project The first phase of the initial 300,000 tons of green hydrogen-ammonia project, with a total capacity of 1.5 million tons, has successfully commenced operations. According to available information, this project is located in China and constructs an integrated demonstration project for green hydrogen and green ammonia production from wind and solar energy. The total investment is approximately 40 billion yuan, with an expected completion and commencement of production before 2028. The project leverages technological breakthroughs in new power systems to achieve an efficient coupling of wind, solar, storage, and hydrogen-ammonia alcohol production, solving significant cost challenges to the development of zero-carbon hydrogen. The first tank of liquid ammonia produced recently used 100% green electricity, marking an important milestone in the global development of green hydrogen and allowing the ‘new oil’ to achieve large-scale industrialization. Among the project’s features, it plans to produce 1.52 million tons of zero-carbon industrial gas products annually. The first phase of the project is scheduled to start production within two years, making it the world’s first zero-carbon hydrogen-ammonia project. Additionally, the rectifiers used in this project feature a single system with a power of 9MW, offering high reliability, efficiency, power factor, low harmonics, compact size, and good adaptability to large electrolyzers, providing perfect guarantees for the project to run at full capacity and produce stable green hydrogen. #rectifier #hydrogen-#ammonia

Is it possible to compare Australia with Germany/Europe? To be honest I think this is difficult because Australia has more space to add renewables and therefore a more steady power generation for the hydrogen production and I would guess that the actual local demand of hydrogen is less. BUT this may change when more hydrogen will be used for the back up power plants. What is your opinion on this? Would be great if you could share with me your thoughts in the comments.
The Australian Government has announced “up to $70 million” in funding to support development of the Townsville Region Hydrogen Hub, with construction expected to be complete in 2026. In a statement on Tuesday, energy minister Chris Bowen said that “with its port, expertise in exports and access to Queensland’s abundant solar resources” the city was “ideally placed” to export Australian renewable energy. The hub is led by Edify Energy, along with partners including Siemens Energy, TAFE Queensland, James Cook University and Townsville Enterprise (TEL). #auspol #manufacturing #australianmanufacturing #hydrogen #greenhydrogen

💰💡 100 Million investment for Green Hydrogen Production in Roda de Berà. #GreenHydrogen #Investment #RenewableEnergy. 🌍 Danish company European Energy has ambitious plans with an investment of approximately €100 million for a hydrogen plant in Roda de Berà, Tarragona. The proposal, part of the Power-to-X project, seeks to generate renewable energy directly at the same location as the gas plant. ☀️🍃 The zero-kilometer concept aims to integrate renewable energy production, including solar and wind farms, together with the hydrogen plant. In addition, a desalination plant is envisaged if necessary. 🏭 Despite the initial reluctance of the City Council, the initiative has gained support. The developers have already secured the lease of the land for a period of 30 years. 🌐 The company is seeking subsidies at both national and European level to support the project, although they assure that the initiative will go ahead regardless of grants. 🔗 Details: https://bit.ly/47Djbp1 How do you think this project will impact power generation in the region? 🤔✨

PID reached for first green hydrogen valley in Portugal | REGA ENERGY has concluded a Preliminary Investment Decision (PID) for its first green hydrogen valley in Portugal, securing full off-taker capacity. The company will now launch a formal Request for Proposal (RFP) to leading Tier 1 EPC contractors, aiming to choose a partner and sign a contract for the project by the end of Q1 2024. The project comprises a 40 MW electrolyzer and a pipeline network for clients. Recently, REGA Energy Group completed a funding round of €60 million, in addition to finalizing the Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) for the plant and pipeline distribution network. The company has chosen alkaline technology for its electrolyzer and plans to finalize the pre-selection of Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) in the coming months. This hydrogen valley project is the first of its kind in Portugal and has received certification as a Project of National Interest (PIN). The valley will leverage the existing local glass and cement industry hub, ensuring long-term predictability for energy and carbon prices. The PID serves as a testament to the progress made by the group with industry players and contractors, ensuring the selection of optimal partners for the successful completion of this initial phase. It also paves the way for the upcoming execution phase of this project and other green hydrogen valleys currently in development in Portugal.

European Hydrogen Bank - the Commission is awarding nearly €720 million to seven renewable hydrogen projects in Europe. The winning bidders will will receive a subsidy to bridge the price difference between their production costs and the market price for hydrogen, which is currently driven by non-renewable producers. "The 7 selected projects were the winners of an oversubscribed auction which attracted 132 bids in total. Together, the winning bidders plan to produce 1.58 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen over ten years, avoiding more than 10 million tonnes of CO2 emissions. They submitted bids between €0.37 and €0.48 per kilogram of renewable hydrogen produced and also met the other qualification requirements. The subsidy the 7 projects will receive ranges from €8 million to €245 million." "Through the new “Auctions-as-a-service” mechanism, €350 million in national funding has been made available by Germany for the highest-ranked projects in Germany which did not qualify for EU-level support, but which do meet the eligibility criteria. The German authorities will select and communicate the winning projects." European Commission - https://lnkd.in/dWKSkfXD
