Massive ammonia project to launch in Argentina
European market targeted – ammonia carrier segment set to benefit
RP Global and GIZ have partnered to advance a green hydrogen and ammonia project in Argentina. This initiative aims to develop Argentina’s renewable energy potential to produce green ammonia for export to Europe, creating demand for VLACs.
The project plans to install 3 GW of electrolysers powered by a 4.2 GW wind farm, producing 1.7 million tons of green ammonia annually. This production will primarily target the European market, with local demand as a secondary focus, positioning Argentina as a key supplier in the global energy transition.
Not only is this development critical for decarbonizing industries in Europe – it also promises significant benefits for the ammonia carrier segment. Transporting green ammonia over long distances will increase demand for specialized ammonia carriers, boosting shipping activity and fostering growth in this niche market.
