Brooge Energy Ltd., a Cayman Islands-based infrastructure provider engaged in clean petroleum products, biofuels, and crude oil storage and related services, announced on April 5 that a technical study of a proposed green hydrogen and green ammonia plant conducted by thyssenkrupp Uhde has been completed and delivered.
Brooge Energy announced last September that it had engaged thyssenkrupp to undertake a Technical Concept Study and cost estimate for a proposed green ammonia plant in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The plant is based on thyssenkrupp nucera’s alkaline water electrolysis and thyssenkrupp Uhde ammonia synthesis technologies, with a planned capacity of 1,950 mt/d of export-focused green ammonia produced from two phases using green hydrogen from solar energy, with water and air as raw materials.
The study involved a comprehensive techno-economic analysis of the power-to-ammonia value chain using thyssenkrupp’s proprietary modeling tool. Brooge Energy said the goal was to evaluate the influence of various factors on the overall cost-effectiveness of the plant, as well as identifying optimal plant designs.
“This Technical Concept Study is a significant milestone in our journey towards sustainable energy transition,” said Lina Salah Saheb, Interim CEO of Brooge Energy. “The study’s results will help us determine the optimal setup for our green ammonia plant and guide our future investment decisions.”
