Yara International Opens Europe's Largest Green Hydrogen Plant

The facility aims to cut CO2 emissions by 5% at one of Norway's largest industrial sites, advancing decarbonization efforts in the fertilizer industry.

  • Yara International ASA inaugurated a 24-megawatt renewable hydrogen plant in Norway.
  • The plant will reduce annual CO2 emissions by 5% at the Heroya factory, a major industrial emitter.
  • Green ammonia produced from this plant is seen as a key solution for decarbonizing shipping, power generation, and agriculture.
  • Further expansion of green hydrogen capacity is contingent on a complete conversion of the entire ammonia plant.
  • Yara is also exploring blue ammonia projects and carbon capture initiatives in the Netherlands and the US.
