Fueling the Energy Transition™

Making Ammonia from Water and Air

First Ammonia is building the highest-efficiency ammonia
plants that run on variable renewable energy.

Reimagining Ammonia

The World Today: Ammonia is made in fossil fuel processes with carbon emissions and methane leakage.

The Future: Ammonia is made from water and air using renewable power in a simple, clean process.

An Impactful Vision

Meeting the World's Energy Needs

Renewable energy will be transported as ammonia from places rich in energy to places that need it.

Powering International Shipping

International ships will no longer emit harmful emissions from the dirtiest fuels but run on clean, carbon-free ammonia.

Sustaining Cleaner Local Industry

Communities built around industries like steelmaking and chemicals will be sustained with high-quality jobs with cleaner
production.

Creating a secure fertilizer supply

Nitrogen fertilizer will no longer be made from fossil fuels and transported thousands of miles, but from renewable energy close to the community.

Every 100,000 tons of electric ammonia produced avoids ~240,000 tons of CO₂ emissions compared to fossil ammonia

Building The Future

First Ammonia’s flagship facility in Victoria, Texas.

We will begin construction in 2025 and operations in 2027.

Texas is the perfect location with its rich solar and wind resources. Decades of flourishing industry have created an experienced workforce with valuable existing infrastructure.

Technology Partner Topsoe

Partnered on next-generation, electric ammonia plants.

We will use Topsoe’s solid oxide electrolyzer technology integrated with a Topsoe ammonia loop to maximize the amount of ammonia produced per unit of electricity input. Topsoe brings an 80+ year history of international leadership in ammonia production.

Let's Collaborate

First Ammonia believes building the energy system of the future requires working together across industries and the value chain.
