By 2027 the project aims to annually produce 1\u00a0million\u00a0tons of green ammonia &#8211; a hydrogen derivative that is particularly suitable for transport by ship. German renewable energy project developer Enertrag is a joint venture partner of Hyphen.<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">RWE is committed to develop a globally diversified portfolio of long-term offtake agreements for green hydrogen and its derivatives, such as ammonia. In this context RWE has announced in March its plan to build a terminal for green ammonia in Brunsb\u00fcttel (Germany) by 2026. This terminal could serve as one port of destination for Namibian ammonia.<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Marco Raffinetti, CEO of Hyphen Hydrogen Energy, said: \u201cWe are delighted to reach this agreement with RWE. This milestone underpins our ambitious targets to export green hydrogen globally from Namibia. By establishing strong connections with policymakers and offtakers across Europe, we are working with the Government of Namibia to develop the industry which will spearhead southern Africa\u2019s role in achieving regional and global decarbonisation goals.\u201d<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">Ulf Kerstin, Chief Commercial Officer of RWE Supply &amp; Trading said: &#8220;Green molecules are the only way for many industries in Germany to achieve their climate targets. In the long term, Germany&#8217;s demand for them will have to be met mainly through imports. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;re looking forward to progressing the offtake discussions with Hyphen &#8211; to bring green ammonia from Namibia to Germany.&#8221;<\/span><strong><span lang=\"EN-US\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"rwe-tick01\" data-tpl=\"tic01\">\n<div class=\"\" data-tpl=\"mediaContainer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-tpl=\"ll01\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RWE and Hyphen Hydrogen Energy (Hyphen) have signed a memorandum of understanding that could see RWE offtake up to 300,000 tons of green ammonia* per year from Namibia.
