How we're helping scale up green hydrogen production in Queensland, Australia
The aim of this study is to determine the viability of producing green hydrogen at commercial scale at QNP’s existing manufacturing plant in Queensland, Australia, to feed a new ammonia plant, which in turn is fed into an existing ammonium nitrate chemical facility.
When the hydrogen is fed into the new ammonia plant, it will produce 20,000 tonnes per year of ammonia from 3,600 tonnes of green hydrogen. The proposed plant would produce 20 percent of the ammonia used by QNP which is currently purchased from third parties.
The proposed project aims to progress the commercialization of green hydrogen production for domestic and international use. Ammonia production is currently the largest use of hydrogen, consuming about half of the global hydrogen production.
