Kick-starting a global low-carbon ammonia industry

As one of the most-used petrochemicals in the world, ammonia offers numerous decarbonisation and energy market opportunities, including the potential to provide 100mn tonnes into the power sector by 2050 in a ‘high-case scenario’, according to a new report from Wood Mackenzie. However, without strong policy support, low-carbon ammonia may remain an untapped market.

China solidifies lead in global electrolyser market

China’s national plan identifies hydrogen as a key element in its low-carbon energy transition strategy, targeting 200,000 t/y of green hydrogen production by the end of 2025. However, the latest analysis from Rystad Energy suggests China will exceed that volume by the end of 2024. It forecasts that about 2.5 GW of hydrogen electrolyser capacity will have been installed by the end of the year, producing 220,000 t/y of green hydrogen, some 6,000 t/y more than the rest of the world combined.

The carbon border shift – UK industries will need to brace for CBAM compliance

The EU is to introduce the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) from 2027, as a way to prevent companies from evading climate regulations by relocating production to countries with less stringent standards. CBAM is set to cover iron and steel, cement, hydrogen and fertilisers. UK business leaders will need to start building a carbon strategy to ensure compliance and remain competitive, writes Lili Strege, Carbon Analyst at CFP Energy.
