HIP Azotara to be dismantled for data centre

ATOME says that it has signed a definitive offtake agreement with Yara for the purchase of the entire 260,000 t/a output of the low-carbon Villeta project. The plant will be based on 100% renewable baseload power, and will displace some 500,000 t/a of carbon dioxide equivalent. ATOME says that the agreement represents the last commercial milestone in its path to a final investment decision (FID), following the successful completion of other key commercial items, including the signing of the $465 million fixed-price, lump-sum engineering, procurement and construction contract with Casale.

Ukrainian drones attacked the Azot chemical plant in Perm Krai on October 3rd, according to regional Governor Dmitry Makhonin. The strike reportedly disrupted production at the facility, one of Russia’s largest nitrogen fertilizer producers, located about 1,700 km from Ukrainian-controlled territory, which produces ammonia, urea, and ammonium nitrate.
