Yara North America’s Post

“Yara is now demonstrating that this can be done. They have been a frontrunner, first mover. We need to decarbonize, and we need to produce more renewable energy.” These were some reflections Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre shared during the official opening of our renewable hydrogen plant!   🎉 Yara’s renewable hydrogen plant is a major milestone in decarbonizing the food value chain, shipping fuel and other energy intensive industries.   🎯 To reach our climate goals we need to act urgently on multiple fronts and the companies who take the green transition seriously will have a competitive advantage. However, the right framework conditions need to be in place, together with investments, funding and a market where supply and demand develop in parallel.   🤝 Collaboration across entire value chains is an essential piece of the puzzle and the realization of Yara’s renewable hydrogen plant is a powerful example of this.   Learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dAdji-At

"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. 👇

🌟 Exciting News Alert! 🌟 Erik Thun Group, a leading player in the maritime industry, is currently in talks to purchase E-methane from Electrochaea, a pioneering company in renewable gas technology. This collaboration marks a significant stride towards achieving our collective goal of a greener and more sustainable future. As we continue to navigate the challenges posed by climate change, innovative solutions like this are paramount. E-methane, produced through the groundbreaking technology of Electrochaea, holds immense promise in decarbonizing various sectors, including shipping – a sector traditionally associated with high emissions. Erik Thun Group's interest in acquiring E-methane underscores the increasing recognition of renewable energy sources as viable alternatives to conventional fuels. By harnessing the power of electrochemical processes, Electrochaea has unlocked a pathway to produce methane sustainably, utilizing surplus renewable energy. This potential collaboration exemplifies the power of partnerships in driving positive change. By joining forces, Erik Thun Group and Electrochaea are paving the way for widespread adoption of renewable gases, fostering a cleaner and more resilient energy landscape. Let's continue to support and champion such initiatives that lead us toward a more sustainable, cleaner future for generations to come. Together, we can make a difference! 💪🌍 #RenewableEnergy #Sustainability #Innovation #CleanEnergy #ClimateAction #Electrochaea #ErikThun #GreenFuture

Spain’s natural resources will enable the creation in the Campo de Gibraltar of the Andalusia Green Hydrogen Valley - Exciting greenfield 3B project ahead in home town as the first marine link of Green Hydrogen between North and Southern Europe 🙌 https://lnkd.in/dpzV4aiQ Green hydrogen can also be used to develop by-products such as green ammonia and methanol to decarbonise shipping as well as to produce second-generation biofuels such as sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), all of which will comprise the Andalusia Green Hydrogen Valley..

Electrochaea and Erik Thun Group have announced negotiations for the off-take of e-methane to be utilized as green marine fuel. This collaboration marks a pivotal move towards reducing carbon emissions in the maritime industry. Electrochaea, through its subsidiary BioCAT Roslev Aps in Denmark, is set to produce e-methane utilizing its patented bio-methanation technology. The process involves the use of renewable power from wind to produce green hydrogen, which is then combined with CO2 from biogas production to generate e-methane. This eco-friendly fuel will be integrated into the Danish gas grid, contributing to the decarbonization efforts across Europe. Erik Thun AB, a leading shipping company, intends to utilize e-methane to replace fossil-based LNG fuel in its vessels. This strategic shift aligns with the company’s commitment to sustainability and its endeavor to lead the transition towards renewable fuels in the maritime sector. Notably, Erik Thun AB aims to operate its existing LNG fleet without necessitating propulsion system replacements, thereby facilitating a smoother transition to cleaner energy sources. #bunkering #energy #shipping #marine #maritime #petroleum #shipowners #decarbonization #technology #digitalization #energytransition #sustainable #oilandgas #cleanenergy #carboncapture #ports #greenenergy #greenshipping #netcarbonzero #society #sustainability #bunkermarket #europe #usa #uk #canada #uae #netherlands #denmark #norway #sweden #singapore #electrochaea #erikthun #erikthunab #emethane #lngbunkering #emthanebunkering #marinfuels https://lnkd.in/dTrjaxRU

🎊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

In Spain, Groupe Lactalis is joining forces with Iberdrola in the Q-Cero Alliance to drive change towards a greener future. 👉 Our focus: the new whey concentrator at Villarrobledo. This advanced technology reduces steam usage by 55% in whey production, cutting down our #CO2 emissions by 5,600 tons annually. That's equivalent to the emissions of 450 homes over a year. Local to global: this is just one example of our wider strategy to decarbonize our industrial processes. From renewable energy partnerships to installing photovoltaic systems and exploring biomass projects, every step we take is a action for a more sustainable #dairy industry. 📍Location: Lactalis factory in Villarrobledo Agnes Baudet - Barbezant Catherine Roux Thierry Clement Henar L.
