Australia’s federal government has selected the Murchison Green Hydrogen project in Western Australia as one of four pilot projects under its newly launched Investor Front Door initiative, a scheme designed to streamline regulatory approvals and fast-track major projects deemed to be in the national interest, the government announced 9 April. The Murchison project, which will use wind and solar energy to produce large-scale green ammonia, is intended to serve as a model for commercial-scale green hydrogen development in Australia and to generate green export opportunities to markets in Asia and Europe. Murchison, being developed by Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners’ (CIP), is expected to have a total production capacity of roughly 1.3 million t/a of green ammonia. The first phase of operations is due to begin in 2029.

Indian renewable energy developer InSolare Energy, in consortium with SCC Infrastructure, says that it has signed Green Ammonia Purchase Agreements (GAPA) with the Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) for the supply of 85,000 t/a of green ammonia under India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission 13 April. The agreements, executed through two separate special purpose vehicles, involve a total estimated investment of around $400 million, InSolare said in a statement.

Chinese companies Sungrow Hydrogen and CRRC Zhuzhou say that they have secured electrolyser supply contracts for the first phase of a geothermal-powered hydrogen and ammonia project in Olkaria, Kenya, developed by Chinese firm Kaishan Group. Kaishan signed a steam supply agreement with state utility KenGen in October 2025, under which KenGen will supply steam from existing geothermal wells for Kaishan to generate 165MW of electricity to power the electrolysers. Chinese firm Wuhuan Engineering is serving as engineering, procurement and construction contractor. Works on the site began in November 2025.

Abu Qir Fertilizers & Chemicals, Alexandria Fertilizers, Orascom Construction SAE, and Green Hydrogen Development Holding, a subsidiary of China’s United Energy Group (UEG), have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to explore the development of a Mediterranean green hydrogen hub in Alexandria. The proposed project would centre on a large-scale green hydrogen facility powered by wind and solar, with output integrated into existing ammonia infrastructure in the region. Under the agreement, UEG and Orascom will lead feasibility studies covering 500 MW of renewable energy generation and green hydrogen production, while Abu Qir and Alexfert will assess integration into ammonia operations and support access to local infrastructure.

Hydrogen Poland and the Hungarian Hydrogen Technology Association (HHTA) have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to cooperate on hydrogen regulations and green ammonia production across Central Europe, according to media reports.

Egypt’s $873 million green ammonia project in New Damietta has entered the front-end engineering and design (FEED) phase, with pre-FEED studies for the marine jetty and hydrogen plant already completed, Zawya reported 7 April, citing a statement by the Egyptian Petrochemicals Holding Company (ECHEM). The project is being developed by Damietta Green Ammonia (DGA), a joint venture between Norway’s Scatec, ECHEM and Misr Fertilizers Production Company (MOPCO). FEED work on ammonia export facilities is ongoing, while major permits and financing arrangements are still being finalised.

ATOME's Villeta green fertilizer project in Paraguay has reached financial close.

Topsoe has signed a FEED agreement for Hynfra’s green ammonia project located in the port of Aqaba, Jordan. The FEED is the detailed engineering and design of the plant, and Topsoe’s ammonia synthesis technology will be part of this design. The plant will convert green hydrogen to ammonia based on Topsoe’s ModuLite™ platform. Kim Hedegaard, CEO […]

ATOME has signed definitive debt agreements for the $650 million Villeta green fertilizer project in Paraguay.

Topsoe says that it has been selected as the ammonia technology licensor for ACWA’s Yanbu Green Hydrogen Project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The process will enable green hydrogen from the Yanbu Project to be converted into ammonia. Topsoe will also deliver engineering, proprietary equipment and catalysts to Sinopec and Tecnicas Reunidas, who have jointly been awarded the front-end engineering design (FEED) contract.
