AM Green signs offtake agreement for renewable ammonia

Uniper Global Commodities has signed a long-term binding offtake agreement with AM Green Ammonia India for up to 500,000 t/a of renewable ammonia certified as a Renewable Fuel of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO). The agreement, the first of its kind for an Indian company, was signed by Michael Lewis CBE, CEO of Uniper, and Anil Kumar Chalamalasetty, Founder and Group Chairman of AM Green. The first shipment is expected in 2028 from AM Green Ammonia’s first 1.0 million t/a green ammonia plant, currently under construction at Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh province.

Uniper says that the agreement “represents a significant step forward in developing a diversified portfolio of renewable and low-carbon molecules for European customers”. As a feedstock and a potential hydrogen carrier, renewable ammonia will help decarbonize industrial sectors such as chemicals, fertilizers, refining, and, over time, shipping. Uniper and AM Green Ammonia will continue working with certification bodies to ensure traceability and high integrity reporting for European end-users.
