Ammonia synthesis through renewable energy technology can revolutionize the energy and fertilizer markets in the future. The economic feasibility of different ammonia plants will require calculating the levelized cost of ammonia production.
Ammonia synthesis through renewable energy technology can transform the energy and fertilizer markets of the future. The study deals with the techno economic environmental analysis of conventional ammonia synthesis via natural gas and green ammonia synthesis via onshore wind technology in coastal areas of Germany. The study also investigates the current and futuristic (2030) economic feasibility of different ammonia plants by calculating levelized cost of ammonia production. Major ammonia plants in Germany uses Steam Methane Reforming and Haber Bosch Process plants that requires natural gas as a source of hydrogen and air as a source of nitrogen. Similarly, the green ammonia plant uses water electrolysers (Alkaline/PEM electrolysers), Cryogenic Air Distillation, Water Desalination and Haber Bosch Process plants that are all powered by onshore wind farm.
