Fertiglobe ships world’s first ISCC PLUS certified renewable ammonia
2023 November 21

OCI Global, Fertiglobe, the strategic partnership between ADNOC and OCI Global, has completed the first shipment of the world’s first internationally recognized renewable ammonia with ISCC PLUS (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) certification.

The renewable ammonia was produced at the company’s facilities in Egypt using green hydrogen from the Egypt Green Hydrogen electrolyzer and will go into the production of near-zero emissions synthetic soda ash – a key ingredient in laundry powder – for Unilever.

EXCLUSIVE | World's largest green hydrogen project 'has major problems due to its Chinese electrolysers': BNEF
All the electrolysers at Sinopec’s 260MW Kuqa facility in China — made by three prominent manufacturers — have safety issues related to renewable-energy fluctuations, says analyst

The alkaline electrolysers — supplied by three different Chinese manufacturers: Cockerill Jingli (120MW), Longi (80MW) and Peric (60MW) — each have their own technical issues, but all have one common problem related to their flexibility, according to BNEF analyst Xiaoting Wang.
She tells Hydrogen Insight that all three manufacturers promised an operating range of 30-100% of their electrolysis systems’ nameplate yield. In other words, if the amount of renewable energy entering the systems results in the production of less than 30% of its maximum output, the machines will stop releasing hydrogen.

“However, all those electrolysers failed tests at the 30% working point,” said Wang. “The actual working range could be narrower than 50-100%.”
She tells Hydrogen Insight that the problem of is rooted in product design and materials used in the product.

“Most issues today arise from immature engineering processes, which materialise during manufacturing and lead to project delays and cost overruns. As one key priority, we will change the way we engineer our products and control design changes.”
