Envision’s Green Hydrogen-Ammonia Mega Project
Envision Energy is currently developing the world’s largest commercial green hydrogen-ammonia facility, designed around its innovative net-zero industrial park model. The project integrates wind and solar energy directly with hydrogen production and ammonia synthesis, optimizing efficiency and lowering carbon intensity.
- Phase 1 (2024): Production began with an annual output of 300,000 tons of green ammonia.
- Full Capacity (Planned): Scaled to 1.5 million tons per year upon completion.
The plant uses a full-stack technology approach—including alkaline and PEM electrolysis systems—combined with intelligent system integration to address common challenges such as intermittency and energy efficiency.
