First Ammonia has signed the sales and service agreements with Topsoe for the fabrication of the first 100 MW (megawatts) of solid oxide electrolysers, at its green ammonia facility in Victoria, Texas, USA. The project will commence commercial operation in 2027.
The new Topsoe factory in Herning, Denmark, enters operation at the end of 2024, and will produce 500 MW of solid oxide electrolysers annually. This milestone follows the performance of Topsoe’s solid oxide electrolyser demonstration core that has been running in Topsoe’s Frederikssund facility since the end of 2023 under industrial conditions.
First Ammonia CEO Joel Moser says: ‘I am confident that Topsoe solid oxide electrolysers will be part of the larger solution to the world’s decarbonisation goals by establishing a hydrogen economy, and the production of green ammonia together will help take us there.’
