Yara Clean Ammonia

We are proud to join the Hydrogen Council Board alongside industry leaders. Collaboration and partnerships are critical to growing the hydrogen economy, and we are committed to sharing our expertise in ammonia production and distribution to drive this transformation. Together, we can align standards, regulations, and certification to enable industry growth. 🌍💡

✨ 🚢 December marks a significant month for milestones in the development of #ammonia as a marine fuel. Along with IMO’s approval of the Ammonia Interim Guidelines for the safety of ships using ammonia as fuel, comes a release of DNV-RP-0699 Recommended Practice, outlining comprehensive competence requirements to #seafarers and onshore personnel for safe handling of ammonia onboard the ships. YCA is proud to have played an important role in this initiative by sharing decades of operational experience in maritime and onshore activities. We’ve spent years learning and refining how ammonia is handled safely and efficiently with safety firmly embedded as a core business value.    A big thank you to DNV and Kirsten Birgitte Strømsnes for organizing this initiative and bringing this document to the industry. 👏   No one can achieve a safe and sustainable transition to alternative fuels in isolation. It takes a meaningful and dedicated collaboration across the industry. This new framework will help shipowners and crews navigate this transition with confidence.🤝 🦺

It’s a wrap from the 4th European EnerGreenDeal Conference🎬 🌍   Today’s conversations reinforced one undeniable truth. Europe is at a crossroads. The decisions we make now will define whether we lead the #GreenTransition or lag further behind.   Low-emission ammonia has the potential to be a game-changer in Europe’s energy future. As an #EnergyVector, it enables hydrogen transport, decarbonizes industry and transport, and strengthens energy security. But potential isn’t enough, we need action.   Key takeaways 👇   Technology-neutral policies that embrace diverse solutions like #CarbonCapture and Storage (#CCS) are required for rapid #Decarbonization and global competitiveness. 💙   Collaboration across the value chain is critical to accelerating progress, from production to transport, ensuring investment and innovation are aligned. 🤝   The time for ambition alone has passed. Europe must create predictable frameworks that give industries the confidence to invest in a sustainable future. 📈   At Yara Clean Ammonia, we’re not waiting for change we’re enabling it. By working across the full value chain, we’re scaling real-world solutions like CCS to ensure Europe doesn’t just survive this transition but thrives in it.   Thank you to everyone who contributed to today’s vital discussions, our very own CEO Hans-Olav Raen of Yara Clean Ammonia, Outi Slotboom, Prof. Dr. Andrea Wechsler MEP, Paul Voss and Dominique Mockly and also to David Rose for the excellent moderation of the panel.   #EUClimateAction 

  🌍 The world is heating up and we need to cut emissions rapidly. Today, the 4th European EnerGreenDeal Conference will bring together EU policymakers, industry leaders, and innovators to explore how Europe can align its #decarbonization ambitions with industrial competitiveness.   At Yara Clean Ammonia, we’re proud to be a part of the conversation, we believe low emission #ammonia is a cornerstone of the climate transition. As a scalable hydrogen carrier and clean maritime fuel, ammonia can play a critical role in driving the green transition while supporting Europe’s energy security.   But to achieve climate neutrality we need predictable, demand-driven policies as the foundation for progress. Hans-Olav Raen, CEO of Yara Clean Ammonia, will join the panel at the plenary session: “Driving a European green industrial renaissance and retaining competitiveness: Progresses and next steps after the #AntwerpDeclaration.”   We look forward to engaging in these discussions and advocating for the policies needed for a sustainable, competitive Europe.   Learn more about how we're driving decarbonization 👉 https://lnkd.in/dfEk2GPd

As the world’s first cross-border #CCS agreement, operations are planned to commence next year, with Yara Sluiskil set to capture approximately 800,000 tons of CO₂ annually. This translates to a total of about 12 million tons of CO₂ over the next 15 years.   This model not only supports decarbonization but also opens new opportunities for the #shipping industry. By transporting CO₂, vessels will become an integral part of the carbon management infrastructure, contributing to a #CircularEconomy. ♻️🚢

🌍🚢 Decarbonizing the maritime sector is a shared challenge and an incredible opportunity. Scaling up zero-emission fuels, as highlighted by the #FirstMoversCoalition and the #FirstSuppliersHub, is vital for achieving a net-zero future.   At Yara Clean Ammonia, we’re inspired by the global momentum toward solutions that address the complex challenges of #decarbonization. By innovating across the value chain and collaborating with forward-thinking partners, we reaffirm our commitment to shaping a more sustainable future for shipping and heavy industry.   Learn more 👉 www.yaracleanammonia.com

Next week, Yara Clean Ammonia will join thought leaders and innovators at European Hydrogen Week in Brussels to discuss one of the most pressing topics in sustainability: carbon pricing as a catalyst for cleaner transitions.   With the revision of the EU’s Emission Trading System (#ETS) and the introduction of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (#CBAM), carbon pricing is emerging as a key enabler for reducing emissions and driving investments in renewable #hydrogen and clean technologies.   Our Senior VP, Vibeke Rasmussen, will delve into these dynamics during a panel discussion on how targeted carbon pricing strategies can:   🚢 Incentivize sustainable innovations in maritime shipping. 🌱 Reshape food production systems. 💚 Accelerate the adoption of low-emission hydrogen solutions   Join us as we connect the dots between policy, technology, and impact! 📅 Tuesday November 19th 🕙 10:00-11:00 CET 📌 Hall 11 Learn more here 👉 euhydrogenweek.eu 

🌍 At Yara Clean Ammonia, it’s the people behind our projects who make our success possible. In our latest video, our Yara colleagues share insights into Germany’s hydrogen strategy, highlighting how imported ammonia will be key to meeting future demand. With local production unable to cover all needs, the #Brunsbüttel terminal is stepping in as a vital hub.   Located along the North Sea and Kiel Canal, this facility ensures we’re ready to meet evolving market demands, providing crucial support for industries making the shift to low-carbon solutions. The #ammonia imported here can be converted into hydrogen exactly where it’s needed, benefiting hard-to-decarbonize sectors like steel and chemicals.   By leveraging our global supply network and expertise, we’re not just supporting Germany’s goals but helping to shape the hydrogen economy across Europe.   This is one way we’re moving the needle toward a more sustainable future.   Learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dvr8cY-9

🎉 We’re excited to announce the opening of our new ammonia import terminal in Brunsbüttel, Germany. This terminal is designed to play a pivotal role in Europe’s energy transition, enabling the import of up to 3 million tonnes of low-emission ammonia each year. That’s enough to produce 530,000 tonnes of hydrogen, about 5% of Europe’s total target for 2030. “As the world’s largest ammonia shipper and distributor, we’re uniquely positioned to deliver low-emission ammonia to Germany at competitive prices,” says Hans-Olav Raen, CEO of Yara Clean Ammonia. “This terminal represents a huge step in kick-starting Germany’s hydrogen economy and moving towards a net-zero future.” At YCA, we’re working across the full ammonia value chain from production to storage and distribution to ensure low-carbon solutions reach the industries that need them most, including steel, chemicals, and shipping. The Brunsbüttel terminal is part of our larger commitment to driving sustainable growth and decarbonizing key sectors of the economy. This is another step forward in our mission to advance key sectors towards a net-zero future and to enable a global hydrogen economy. 🌍👏 Learn more 👉 https://lnkd.in/dvr8cY-9 #AllTheWayToZero #HydrogenEconomy
