ABB and Allied Green Ammonia sign MOU to accelerate the energy transition with green hydrogen and ammonia
14 March 2025
Allied Green Ammonia, a global industry leader in clean energy infrastructure, is rapidly advancing the development of its flagship green ammonia plant proposed for construction in Northern Territory Australia.
ABB, a global technology leader in electrification and automation, are providing support with products and solution expertise that are key to AGA’s engineering and design and enabling the project developers to make the Final Investment Decision (FID). FID is targeted to be complete on an accelerated basis for the green hydrogen-to-ammonia plant with a capacity of 958,500 tons annually.
The collaboration will focus on developing a scalable electrical micro-grid solution providing DC and AC switchgear and digital solution, connecting a 4.75GW capacity solar farm and powering the 3GW size hydrogen electrolyzer facility and the downstream green-ammonia plant.
ABB’s integrated eHouse and skid solutions, based on pre-engineered and designed configurations, incorporate digitally connected, ABB Ability™ enabled solutions that support rapid development of the plant electrical concept. ABB provides simplified execution, cost predictability and risk mitigation via scalable designs.
The approach is based on reliability, modularity, scalability, and adaptability to meet the project requirements. Integrated solutions offer a single access point to not only the ABB distribution solutions portfolio, but to the greater ABB offering. ABB’s broad packaging and solutions approach helps to meet carbon reduction targets, improve asset uptime, and optimize system performance.
We are delighted to sign this Memorandum of Understanding together with ABB to incorporate their technology and expertise into this trailblazing project to create a Green Ammonia economy in the Northern Territory.” Alfred Benedict, Chairman and Managing Director Allied Green Ammonia
