H2Carrier and Anori Plan Greenland’s First PtX Project
(Bioenergy International) H2Carrier’s P2XFloater concept is based on making a life extension of an existing Very Large Gas Carrier (VLGC) and expanding upon its design by extending its hull to maximize production capacity. Green hydrogen is produced by pumping onboard seawater from the ocean, purifying it, and feeding it to electrolyzers. The green hydrogen is combined with nitrogen extracted from the air and synthesized in an ammonia generator to produce green ammonia. All steps are powered by renewable wind, solar or hydro energy through a high-capacity power cable from a renewable power source next to the P2XFloater
Norway-headed H2Carrier AS, the Power-to-X developer, designer, and owner of the proprietary floating energy production and storage system “P2XFloater” has announced that it has signed a Letter of Intent (LoI) with the Greenland-based company Anori A/S with the aim of developing the first commercial wind farm in Greenland with subsequent production and export of green ammonia.

All industrial use of ammonia at present is associated with significant emissions of CO2. By building on established and proven technologies with a strong safety track record from oil and gas, we have developed zero-carbon solutions for ammonia which is a key ingredient in agriculture and the food industry, said Mårten Lunde, CEO of H2Carriers.
H2Carrier aims to build, own/lease, and operate a fleet of P2XFloaters on PtX projects globally.
…
The wind farm to be developed by Anori is projected to comprise 1.5 GW of renewable energy which will supply power to H2Carrier’s floating production vessel for hydrogen and green ammonia.
…
Green ammonia will be stored in tanks onboard the vessel, then exported to smaller shipping vessels and carried to the international market for ammonia. READ MORE
