Perth-based Allied Green Ammonia Pty Ltd. has selected Danish firm Topsøe A/S to supply the green ammonia technology for its proposed ammonia plant on the Gove Peninsula in the Northern Territory of Australia, Topsøe reported.
The Danish company said it is also in discussions with Allied Green for the supply of an undisclosed quantity of Solid Oxide Electrolysis Cells (SOEC) to produce green hydrogen.
Allied Green is proposing to develop a green hydrogen and green ammonia production facility to produce 165,000 mt/y of green hydrogen, which it has said will be used to produce 912,000 mt of green ammonia annually.
According to Topsøe, the green ammonia plant will have a production capacity of 2,500 mt/d and is planned to start producing in the fourth quarter of 2028 or first quarter of 2029
Allied Green in September signed a Project Development Agreement (PDA) with Spanish global engineering company Técnicas Reunidas SA to initiate the first phases of the project (GM Sept. 29, p. 28). At the time, the Australian company said the Basic Engineering Design (BED) and Front-End Engineering Design (FEED) were to start shortly.
Allied Green plans to export the green ammonia output to the expanding Southeast Asian markets, where demand for e-fuels continues to grow.
