Topsoe 和 First Ammonia 签署5GW 世界最大SOEC电解槽协议

Topsoe and First Ammonia Launch Zero Emission Ammonia Production With the World’s Largest Reservation of Electrolyzer Capacity

Topsoe 和 First Ammonia 签署5GW 世界最大SOEC电解槽协议

Topsoe and First Ammonia signed a 5GW launch company agreement for the reservation of first-of-a-kind, industrial-scale, solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC) to produce green ammonia, a fuel for transportation, power storage and generation, and fertilizer.

Topsoe 和 First Ammonia 公司签署 5GW项目协议，开启首个工业级规模固体氧化物电解槽 (SOEC)生产绿氨：氨气可用作运输、电力储存和发电的燃料以及生产化肥。

This is shaping up to be the largest agreement in the world, to date, for any type of electrolyzer and will displace almost 5 BCM of natural gas and eliminate 13 million tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.

这是迄今为止世界最大的电解槽协议。每年将取代50亿立方米的天然气，减少1300万吨的CO2排放。

The first 500 MW of capacity will be installed in the world’s first commercial-scale green ammonia plants at sites in Northern Germany and Southwestern United States.

该项目首批次500MW产能将安装在德国北部及美国西南部的世界首个商业规模的绿色合成氨工厂。

Today, two leaders in the global green transition, technology pioneer Topsoe and green ammonia early-mover First Ammonia, announced that they have entered into a capacity reservation agreement to kickstart the global market for green ammonia.

全球绿色转型领先公司、技术先驱Topsoe和绿氨先行者First Ammonia宣布，双方已签订产能预留协议，以开启全球绿氨市场。

Topsoe’s ground-breaking, energy efficient solid oxide electrolyzer cells (SOEC) will be installed in First Ammonia’s green ammonia plants around the world in the coming years. The agreement provides for an initial purchase of 500MW of SOEC units and is expandable to up to 5GW over the lifetime of the agreement. Topsoe’s SOEC manufacturing plant is to be built in Herning, Denmark, and has recently received FID from the board.

在未来几年，Topsoe公司开创性的节能型固体氧化物电解槽SOEC将安装在First Ammonia在世界各地的绿色合成氨工厂中。据协议内容，First Ammonia在初期将购买500MW的SOEC机组，并在协议有效期内把容量拓展至5GW。Topsoe公司位于丹麦海宁的SOEC生产最近收到了董事会的最终投资决定FID。

First Ammonia has been developing sites around the globe with the first installation of 500MW of capacity to be installed at locations in Northern Germany and Southwestern United States. These projects will be the world’s first commercial-scale, green ammonia production facilities with operation planned for 2025. First Ammonia will operate all its plants dynamically to support existing renewable power markets.

First Ammonia一直在全球范围内开发工厂，首次安装的500MW电解槽位于德国的北部和美国的西南部。这些项目是世界首个商业规模的绿氨生产设施，并计划于2025年投入运营。First Ammonia 将动态运营其所有的工厂，对现有的可再生能源市场进行支持。

Joel Moser, CEO of First Ammonia, said:

“We have the utmost confidence in Topsoe and its storied scientists and engineers, which is why we have chosen Topsoe as our partner. With their cutting edge SOEC electrolyzers and industry leading ammonia synthesis, we will develop facilities around the world to produce millions of tons of green ammonia from water and air. Ammonia saved humanity from starvation a century ago as a replacement for depleted sources of fertilizers, in large part due to Topsoe’s excellence. Ammonia can save humanity once again as the workhorse of the hydrogen economy, replacing petrochemicals to decarbonize agriculture, transportation and power storage and generation.”

First Ammonia 首席执行官 Joel Moser 表示，我们对Topsoe及其传奇的科学家和工程师充满信心。凭借Topsoe先进的SOEC电解槽技术和行业领先的合成氨，我们将在世界各地开发设施，利用水和空气生产数百万吨绿氨。一个世纪前，氨作为枯竭的肥料来源的替代品让人类免于饥饿，这在很大程度上要归功于Topsoe的卓越表现。作为氢能经济的主力，氨可以再次拯救人类，取代石化产品，使得农业、运输和电力存储及发电等进行脱碳。

Green ammonia to replace hydrocarbon-based fuels for a wide range of use cases

绿氨可替代碳氢化合物燃料，应用广泛

Green ammonia has the highest volumetric energy density out of all the hydrogen-based energy sources – much more than pure hydrogen – which makes it cheap and easy to store and transport.

在所有的氨基能源中，绿氨体积能量密度最高，远超过纯氢，这使得绿氨易于存储和运输。

With an existing global ammonia infrastructure, green ammonia can quickly and easily replace hydrocarbon-based fuels for a wide range of use cases, with ammonia fueled ships already on order and ammonia power stations under development.

通过动态运行（在非高峰电力需求时间生产氨），First Ammonia 将成为可再生能源生产经济的净贡献者，无论公司在哪里建造生产工厂，都可以进一步扩建额外的可再生能源。

By operating dynamically—producing ammonia during off-peak power demand hours—First Ammonia will be a net contributor to the economics of renewable power production, providing for the further build-out of additional renewable power wherever they build a production plant.

利用现有的全球氨气基础设施，绿氨可很快轻松的替代碳氢燃料，且应用广泛。氨燃料船舶现已进行订购，氨气发电也正在开发中。
