Under a long-term agreement, Linde will supply clean hydrogen and nitrogen to OCI’s 1.1 million ton per annum blue ammonia plant. Located in the U.S. Gulf Coast, the project is claimed to be the first greenfield blue ammonia facility of this scale to come onstream in the U.S.

Plug Power will deliver two hydrogen liquefiers to TC Energy Corporation. The highlight of these systems is that it makes use of a hydrogen refrigeration cycle and is claimed to be one of the most energy efficient designs in the market.

The UAE and France have plans to launch a bilateral program under which both the firms will combine their expertise to develop opportunities in order to decarbonize hard-to-abate industries including clean hydrogen solutions for mobility. The program will be launched in the background of the Cop28 climate change conference which will be held in Dubai this year.

Honeywell has introduced its latest technology – UOP efining technology which can be used for producing low-carbon sustainable aviation fuel. The technology claims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 88 % as compared to conventional jet fuels.

Technip Energies has bagged the Feed contract from Exxonmobil to develop the mega project which is expected to produce one billion cubic feet of low-carbon hydrogen per day. Also, more than 98 % of the associated CO2 produced by the facility is expected to be captured and permanently stored.

Mintal Hydrogen has selected Topsoe to supply technology for the first dynamic green ammonia plant in Baotou, Inner Mongolia, China. The unit is expected to produce 390,000 tons green ammonia annually.

Hycc’s green hydrogen project H2ermes is expected to produce 100 MW of green hydrogen in order to reduce emissions from numerous sectors such as steel, aviation, mobility and shipping in the broader Amsterdam region, the Netherlands.
