Danish firms in ‘world first’ green ammonia project
Topsoe, Skovgaard Energy and Vestas launch demonstration project capable of adapting to fluctuating renewable power supply
Hydrogen technology firm Topsoe has partnered with fellow Danish companies Skovgaard Energy and wind turbine manufacturer Vestas to launch a “world first” green ammonia production project that can adapt to fluctuating renewable power supplies. The demonstration plant, located in Ramme in Denmark’s western Jutland region, has a production capacity of 5,000t/yr. It is equipped with advanced technology designed to adapt to the intrinsic fluctuations in power supply during its electrolysis and ammonia synthesis loop. This innovation is expected to ensure optimal production and enhance cost-effectiveness. The plant will draw power from renewable sources, including 50MW from newly installed solar
