background

Located in Pécem, Brazil, this electrolysis plant is a flagship project to meet global environmental challenges by significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions. By fully exploiting existing infrastructure and using exclusively wind and solar energy, the project aims to produce around 80 kt of green ammonia per year. Ultimately, the plant, currently designed for an initial capacity of 100 MW, could evolve to a capacity of 1.3 GW in order to meet the growing global demand for renewable hydrogen.

In addition to its positive environmental impact, this project will generate around 1,500 direct jobs and 1,200 indirect jobs, thus strongly stimulating the local economy and contributing to sustainable regional dynamics.

Customer needs

The customer wants an electrolysis plant that is economically viable and complies with the most demanding environmental standards. This includes a comprehensive optimization of energy consumption and effective integration with existing infrastructures. The project must meet the requirements of a sustainable circular economy, with a significant impact on the reduction of global emissions while generating a positive socio-economic impact through the creation of direct and indirect local jobs.
