Canadian green hydrogen development

"A port on Canada’s eastern coast has unveiled plans to build a plant that will produce green hydrogen and ammonia for international export . . . With 200MW of power supply Recharge estimates the green H2 plant’s electrolyser capacity is likely to be in the region of dozens of MW, depending on the renewable source used . . . New Brunswick’s power system is dominated by hydropower and nuclear, which make up around 60% of its electricity production, with wind and biomass contributing another 11% . . . Green ammonia is made by adding nitrogen from the air to green hydrogen, via the centuries-old Haber-Bosch process. It is touted as a key decarbonisation fuel for shipping, and as a method of transporting green H2 for sale overseas. Crucially, green ammonia can also replace fossil fuel-derived ammonia for use as fertiliser, the production of which accounts for 1.8% of all global carbon emissions. Ammonia from the plant would be exported to international markets, said the BPA, with planned expansions allowing the facility to serve local markets as well."
