A groundbreaking project in Coega, South Africa, valued at $5.8bn, is set to revolutionize the production of green ammonia for international markets. Spearheaded by Hive Energy and BuiltAfrica, the initiative capitalizes on the nation's infrastructure and abundant renewable energy sources to generate cost-effective green ammonia, a vital component for the global fertilizer and chemical industries. This project, expected to commence shipping by late 2029, is projected to deliver one million metric tons of green ammonia annually. With the potential to expand production to 4 million tpa, the venture showcases South Africa's commitment to meeting the surging demand for green hydrogen and ammonia in Europe and Asia. Colin Loubser, CEO of Hive Energy Africa, highlighted the project's ability to produce green ammonia at a lower cost compared to global benchmarks, offering investors an attractive return on investment. Despite challenges posed by subsidy programs in other nations, including Australia and India, South Africa aims to maintain its competitive edge in the burgeoning green energy sector. Strategically positioned along a major shipping route, the Coega project represents a significant step towards establishing South Africa as a key player in the production and export of green ammonia on a global scale.
