Germany’s Thyssenkrupp Uhde GmbH has signed an engineering service contract with UK-based Hive Energy Ltd. for a 1,200 mt/day green hydrogen/ammonia production plant in Spain.
Thyssenkrupp Udhe said in an Oct. 9 press release that it will deliver a pre-FEED to support the development of the green hydrogen/ammonia production plant. It said the contract award followed a techno-economic study for the power-to-ammonia facility, which was performed in 2022 using Thyssenkrupp Uhde’s proprietary RHAMFS methodology.
Thyssenkrupp Udhe will base the pre-FEED on its Uhde ammonia synthesis technology, which it said has been specifically developed “to tackle the unique challenges of dynamic ammonia production,” and will also provide integration engineering for the process facility.
The pre-FEED will allow Hive Energy to advance through the subsequent commercial and regulatory phases of the project development.
According to its website, Hive Energy has been involved in the development, construction, and operation of several large-scale renewable energy projects since its founding in 2012. The company said it now operates from over 20 countries globally, including Brazil, Canada, Croatia, Greece, Italy, New Zealand, Serbia, South Africa, Spain, and the UK.
