Project

Proposed construction and operation of the PV2FUEL Arandis – a green ammonia plant, Arandis, Erongo Region, Namibia

Green Ammonia Production Plant

The Project is located on a 2400 hectares (ha) portion of land outside of the Arandis town. The Project involves the production of green ammonia using renewable energy. Electricity generated from a 1.2 gigawatts (GW) solar park is used to produce hydrogen via water electrolysis. The hydrogen is then combined with nitrogen extracted from air to produce ammonia. A battery energy storage system (BESS) of 1.5 gigawatt hours GWh supports continuous and flexible operation by supplying electricity during periods of low solar generation (at night).
