ABB, a global leader in electrification and automation, has partnered with Allied Green Ammonia (AGA) to support the development of a major green hydrogen and ammonia plant. This collaboration is intended to accelerate the project’s Final Investment Decision (FID), which is set to be completed on an expedited timeline. Once operational, the plant aims to produce approximately 958,500 tons of green ammonia annually, making a significant contribution to the global push for clean energy solutions.

ABB will play a crucial role by providing its advanced products and solution expertise, which are key to the project's engineering and design phases. By leveraging ABB's innovative technology, project developers can efficiently make strategic investment decisions. The partnership will prioritize the development of a scalable electrical micro-grid solution that includes DC and AC switchgear systems, alongside advanced digital solutions. This integrated system will effectively connect a 4.75GW solar farm that powers a 3GW hydrogen electrolyzer facility and the downstream green ammonia production plant.

ABB’s contribution will include its integrated eHouse and skid solutions. These pre-engineered, digitally connected configurations are designed to streamline the plant's electrical concept development. The solutions are enhanced by ABB Ability™ technology, which supports rapid project deployment and operational efficiency. By providing scalable designs, ABB aims to simplify execution, ensure cost predictability, and mitigate project risks. Their comprehensive approach is grounded in principles of reliability, modularity, and adaptability to meet the plant's specific requirements.

ABB's integrated solution offers a centralized access point to its extensive distribution solutions portfolio while providing seamless integration with other ABB technologies. This comprehensive approach is designed to help meet carbon reduction targets, improve asset uptime, and optimize overall system performance. The collaboration highlights ABB’s commitment to delivering sustainable energy solutions that support global decarbonization efforts.

Commenting on the partnership, Alfred Benedict, Chairman and Managing Director of Allied Green Ammonia, said, "We are thrilled to sign this Memorandum of Understanding with ABB to incorporate their cutting-edge technology and expertise into this pioneering project. Our goal is to create a thriving Green Ammonia economy in the Northern Territory, contributing to a cleaner and more sustainable energy future."

This partnership represents a significant step toward accelerating the global energy transition. By combining ABB's technological innovation with Allied Green Ammonia's ambitious vision, the project is poised to set new standards in green hydrogen and ammonia production. As the world continues to seek cleaner energy solutions, collaborations like this one will play a vital role in meeting climate goals and supporting economic growth through sustainable development.
