Process Overview & Value Chain Proposition

• Smart Plant – Fully automatic operation

• Superior Equipment – ASME, TEMA standards

Feasibility Green Ammonia (India) : Distributed
Drivers for Reducing Imports of Oil&NG
• Hybrid Solar + Wind Renewable Power with
storage: Fuel – Low cost Power & Water (100%
Availability)
• No Imports : Raw Material N2 – from Air
Separation, Green H2 – PEM from renewables
• Zero CO2 or Carbon negative (Offset Fossil)
• Green NH3 – Price lower than Imported
Market Developments
ACME Solar
– 2400 TPD1 Green NH3 plant at Oman Duqm Port (SEZ)
from Commercial Scale – 3.0 GW Solar + 0.5 MW Wind -
$3.5 Bn USD (Black & Veatch – Owner’s Engineer)
-5 tpd Pilot (R&D) 2 Green NH3 Plant India – Bikaner,
Rajasthan, India - 5 MW Solar scalable to 10 MW - (Target
COD 2022)
Greenko 50:50 JV with Belgium John Cockerill Group 4
– Export 1 MMTPA Green Ammonia

Economic Drivers – Target Points

• Power LOCE – 4.5 Rs/kWh ( 6 – 7 cents/kWh) – Hybrid Renewable Solar + Wind + Battery/Pump Storage, Grid
Back up - Option

• Electroyzer H2: 750 – 800 $/kW

• Target H2 landed - 2.25 – 2.50 $/kg (Before 2025)

• India Landed Ammonia Cost – Target Less than Import Cost (220 – 250 $/ton) 3

• Distributed Generation near to existing Fertilizer plants – No transportation cost

Summary
• India imports 2 – 3 MMTPA ammonia – > 225$/ton CIF POI

• Near to offshore plant (Wind farm) preferred, existing import facility

of ammonia logistic handling – cryogenic storage tanks, specialized
trucks (BOP)

• Green NH3 below import price feasible – min 100 (break –even) to 200
tpd with power hybrid 45 - 50% availability renewable plant , approx.
min 80 MW wind +solar

• Power Block - 5.4 cr /MW Wind, 4.5 Cr /MW Solar = min 80 MW ,

Capex approx. 400

• Green Hydrogen and then NH3 Synthesis, BOP – In-House Research,

validation by established PMCs in this segment

Latest market news – Jan 2022
• Thyssenkrupp -funding from the German government - to expand its
annual electrolyser output from 1GW to 5GW
• UK-based ITM Power - Double output from 1GW to 2GW in the
coming years
• European Union’s hydrogen strategy - at least 40GW of renewable
hydrogen electrolysers by 2030, requiring between 80 – 120GW of
solar and wind capacity to be connected to provide the necessary
electricity.
• HyDeal Ambition initiative – Green hydrogen across Europe at
€1.5/kg (US$1.82) before 2030
