Big Milestone for Green Energy! 🌱⚡️ Topsoe, Skovgaard Energy, and Vestas have just inaugurated a groundbreaking 5,000-tonne-per-year green ammonia plant in Ramme, Denmark. This initiative aims to showcase the potential of using hydrogen as a viable energy carrier, pushing the boundaries of renewable energy innovation. 🚀🌍 Located in Ramme, this plant uses a "first-of-its-kind" approach by directly coupling renewable power from 50MW of new solar panels and 12MW of existing wind turbines to the ammonia production process. This method takes into account the natural fluctuations in power production, ensuring a cost-effective and streamlined operation. It's worth noting that the project received significant funding—DKK 81 million ($12 million) from the Danish Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Programme (EUDP). 💡🔋 This project is a major step forward in energy transition. According to Kim Hedegaard, CEO Power-to-X at Topsoe, ongoing research, innovation, and practical steps are crucial for developing green solutions for energy-intensive industries and long-distance transportation. Niels Erik Madsen, CEO at Skovgaard Energy, emphasized the importance of converting green power into forms that meet industrial needs, turning green electricity into green ammonia. 🌱🚛 How do you see the future of green ammonia plants shaping our energy landscape?

Nerd alert: Sourcing Renewable Energy with Guaranteed Origin 🤓⚠️ In Enza Tedesco's article, "GO Market Losing Sight of Initial Purpose" (Montel) I express concern that the GO market is straying from the original purpose of guarantees of origin—transparency and impact—which could harm the reputation of GOs. I also note that the GO market is shifting toward commoditization, undermining its effectiveness. Why is this an important topic? Well, according to Our World in Data, how we produce the energy we use accounts for over 70% of the global carbon footprint. By accurately documenting the renewable sources of the energy we use, we can significantly tackle this challenge and reduce emissions. I’m a strong supporter of the Energy Attribute System (also known as Guarantees of Origin, or “GOs”, in Europe). I truly believe that organizations like AIB - Association of Issuing Bodies and The International Tracking Standard Foundation: Founder of I-REC are doing fantastic work in creating a credible system to track the origin of energy used by households and businesses worldwide. However, I find myself increasingly concerned about whether the market built around this great tracking system is fulfilling its intended purpose.
