Yara and Engie are joining forces to conduct a feasibility study to build a a green hydrogen plant integrated with Yara’s existing ammonia plant in Pilbara, Western Australia.
The goal of the feasibility study is to convert the Pilbara ammonia plant from one that relies completely on natural gas for its hydrogen to one where a significant share of its hydrogen comes from renewable power. Reaching the goal will significantly reduce the plant’s CO2 emissions.
Pilbara has plenty of sun, and plenty of water – key ingredients to producing renewable hydrogen. ENGIE and YARA have the complimentary expertise and experience to take on such a complex project, but the key ingredient in this venture is their mutual commitment to a healthier planet and a sustainable future.
