Green hydrogen company Hy2gen aims to import approximately 180,000 metric tonnes of green ammonia annually from Mexico, primarily for distribution within the European Union.
Hy2gen's Green Ammonia Plant in Campeche, Mexico: A Step Forward in Global Transition to Green Energy
Hy2gen, in partnership with Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners and Trafigura, is developing a significant green ammonia production plant in Campeche, Mexico. This facility, slated to commence operation on July 14, 2023, marks the first large-scale green ammonia production facility in Mexico.
The plant, with a production capacity of 200 MW, is expected to create hundreds of local jobs during its construction and operation. The electricity required for the production plant will come from a combined 645 MW wind and solar farm, located in Mexico, specifically in Campeche.
The primary destination for this green ammonia is the European Union. Hy2gen, a German company based in Wiesbaden, aims to import 180,000 tonnes of green ammonia per year from Mexico. This initiative is part of Hy2gen's plan to import green ammonia to the European Union.
While Hy2gen is also involved in a green ammonia production project in Sauda, Norway, the main focus of this article is the Hy2gen plant in Campeche, Mexico. However, it's important to note that the detailed search results do not explicitly mention a Hy2gen 200 MW green ammonia plant in Mexico destined for EU imports, or details about dedicated wind and solar farms tied to this specific Hy2gen Mexico-to-EU plan.
The wind farm and solar farm supplying electricity to the Hy2gen plant in Campeche, Mexico, are located in Campeche, contributing significantly to Mexico's renewable energy goals. The Hy2gen plant in Campeche is a key component of Mexico's strategy to become a major player in the global green hydrogen market.
