The project is looking to establish a low-carbon hydrogen plant used to feed a new ammonia plant to produce low-carbon fertilizer. Additional hydrogen production would be used for the transportation market and/or power generation.
Description of Technology:
Power-To-Ag is an electrolysis plant that will use off-peak grid electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen. This is different (cleaner) than conventional hydrogen production in which hydrogen is stripped from fossil fuels (natural gas and coal) which emits carbon. An ammonia plant will combine clean hydrogen, from the process above, with nitrogen from the air to make ammonia. The ammonia will be utilized as fertilizer, while excess hydrogen will be utilized to fuel hydrogen-powered vehicles and equipment.
