An affiliate of Singapore investment entity, GIC, is also an investor in AMG Ammonia."AMG Ammonia is projected to produce 5 million tonnes per annum of green ammonia using round-the-clock renewable energy by 2030. The platform aims to deliver green ammonia, as it is presently the most mature and stable form of transporting hydrogen," it said. The company, however, did not give the size of the investment.The 5 million tonnes of green ammonia produced is equivalent to approximately 1 million tonnes of green hydrogen, and would represent 20 per cent of India's target for green hydrogen production by 2030, or 10 per cent of Europe's target for imported renewable hydrogen."This size and capacity will place AMG Ammonia among the world's pioneers in large-scale and cost-competitive green ammonia production," the statement said. "The first export of green ammonia from this platform is targeted by late 2025, and aims to serve key OECD markets, such as Germany, Japan and South Korea, as well as Singapore."Gentari and AM Green both bring complementary capabilities across the green hydrogen value chain, including renewable energy, electrolysers, and ammonia production and marketing capabilities.To read more, visit: https://www.zeebiz.com/companies/news-petronas-gic-to-invest-in-green-ammonia-project-in-india-261976 (ICE MUMBAI)
