RWE and AM Green Ammonia to supply RFNBO-compliant ammonia from India

The ammonia will be sourced from AMG's production sites in Kakinada and Tuticorin, India. Initially, 50 000 t of green ammonia will be produced at the Kakinada site, with the remaining volume of up to 200 000 t to be sourced from the Tuticorin facility.

AMG is a subsidiary of the AM Green Group. AMG's ammonia manufacturing facilities will be powered entirely by carbon-free energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydroelectric power. The produced ammonia will meet EU standards for Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RFNBO) as defined in the Renewable Energy Directive (RED III). AMG's facility in Kakinada has already been pre-certified for RFNBO compliance. Pre-certification for other facilities is underway. Deliveries of green ammonia from AMG's sites are expected to start by 2027.

Costas Papamantellos, Head of International Hydrogen Investments at RWE Supply & Trading, said: "RWE is committed to investing in hydrogen and its low-carbon derivatives to help industries achieve their climate goals. For this end, we are building strong supply chains with partners globally. Partnering with AMG allows us to secure green ammonia capacities at an early stage."

"We are delighted to partner with RWE to propel the transformation of various industries and several OECD economies,” said Mahesh Kolli, Group President of AM Green. “Continuous focus on innovation combined with execution reinforces AM Green as a global clean energy transition solutions platform for low-cost green molecules such as hydrogen, ammonia, fuels and other chemicals."
