Topsoe, a provider of advanced technology and solutions for the energy transition, has signed an agreement with First Ammonia to provide its dynamic ammonia synthesis technology for a green ammonia production facility in Victoria, Texas, marking a step toward commercial-scale production in the US.
The facility will use green hydrogen produced through
electrolysis powered by renewable electricity and supply green ammonia to US
and international markets. Financial close is expected later in 2026, with
commercial operations targeted for 2029.
Topsoe’s technology is designed for green ammonia plants and
can ramp production from 10 per cent to 100 per cent, or reduce output at a
similar rate, within 30 minutes.
This flexibility enables the ammonia synthesis process to
respond to fluctuations in renewable power generation while maintaining safe,
reliable and efficient operations.
Joel Moser, CEO, First Ammonia, said: “Topsoe is the world
leader in ammonia synthesis, and First Ammonia is delighted to continue our
partnership with them in establishing a green ammonia industry in the US and
around the world.”
Yassir Ghiyati, Chief Commercial Officer, Topsoe, said: “As green ammonia projects move from ambition to execution, operational flexibility becomes increasingly important. We’re proud to support First Ammonia with technology designed to enable efficient and reliable green ammonia production. We look forward to continuing to work with the First Ammonia team to help bring this important US project to life.” -OGN/TradeArabia News Service
