ACWA breaks ground in Uzbekistan
15 January 2024ACWA Power reports that it has broken ground on a 3000 t/y green ammonia project in Uzbekistan, following the signing of hydrogen purchase and power purchase agreements in May 2023. This is the first phase of a project that will eventually see 2.4 GW of wind energy powering the production of 500 000 tonnes of green ammonia per year.
When fully completed, this is expected to be ACWA Power’s second operational utility-scale green hydrogen project after the NEOM Green Hydrogen Project in Saudi Arabia, which is a joint venture between ACWA Power, NEOM and Air Products.
