Topsoe Wins 1 Billion Dollar South Africa Ammonia Deal

The Coega Green Ammonia Project will purchase $1 billion in electrolyser technology and equipment from Denmark-based Topsoe. The deal supports a $5.8 billion facility on the east coast of South Africa designed to produce 1 million metric tons of green ammonia annually by 2030. The agreement secures critical hardware for one of Africa's largest renewable energy ventures as global demand for carbon-free chemicals accelerates.

### Cutting Capex Through Advanced Technology The project is a joint venture between United Kingdom-based Hive Energy and South African partner BuiltAfrica. Hive Energy CEO Giles Redpath stated that the selected technology would reduce renewable energy capital expenditure by more than 0.5 billion euros ($582.2 million). This efficiency is vital as Hive Energy competes with similar hydrogen and ammonia hubs in Morocco and Namibia.
