October 08, 2024 [Renewables Now]- A consortium of EDF Renewables, Japan’s J-POWER and UK-based YamnaCo is preparing to launch site studies for its large-scale green ammonia project in Oman which is expected to have the capacity to produce 1 million tonnes of green ammonia annually.

 

“The Yamna team, alongside our Consortium partner EDF, conducted a productive site visit in the Salalah region. We explored potential locations for the project facilities in preparation for launching detailed site studies and renewable energy measurement campaign,” Yamna said in a social media post.

“This visit marks the beginning of the advanced project development activities, bringing us one step closer to making our large-scale green ammonia project in Oman, with a planned capacity of 1 million tons per year,” the post states further.

The consortium was one of the winners in the second round of the Sultanate’s green hydrogen tender. The project envisages the development of a 2.5 GW hydrogen plant in the region of Dhofar with a target production of around 178,000 tonnes of green hydrogen annually by 2030. The electrolyser will be powered with 4.5 GW of wind and solar energy coupled with battery storage.

The hydrogen generated will be delivered to an ammonia plant planned for construction in the Salalah Free Zone, where it is expected to produce 1 million tonnes of green ammonia each year.
