Jordan Green Ammonia LLC has signed a Land Use Agreement with the Aqaba Special Economic Zone Authority (ASEZA) and the Aqaba Development Corp. (ADC) to initiate the next phase of studies for a green hydrogen and ammonia facility in Jordan.
The facility is expected to use renewable energy to generate 100,000 mt/y of green ammonia with a potential expansion of up to 300,000 mt/y. The project will use off-grid solar energy and desalinated water in electrolysis to create green hydrogen that will then be processed into green ammonia. The project is expected to attract investments of up to €1.2 billion and to create up to 700 permanent positions.
“This agreement marks a significant advancement in Jordan’s renewable energy landscape,” said Dr. Wael Suleiman, Chairman of the Board of Jordan Green Ammonia. “Our collaboration with ASEZA and ADC will elevate Jordan to a leading position in green hydrogen and ammonia production, driving economic growth and meeting the global demand for clean energy solutions.”
