capture and storage (CCS) facilities capable of capturing and sequestering about 1.5 million tonsof CO2 per annum; (ii) supply more than 35 MW of renewable electricity to the Ammonia-7 train
from its Photovoltaic (PV) Solar Power Plant in MIC, which is currently under construction; (iii)
develop and lead the process for certifying the product produced by the Ammonia-7 facility asBlue Ammonia, with the involvement of leading industry experts and relevant independent bodies;and (iv) be the sole off-taker and marketer of all Blue Ammonia produced by Ammonia-7.
Blue Ammonia is produced when the CO2 generated during conventional Ammonia production
is captured and stored. Blue Ammonia, which can be transported using conventional ships, canthen be used in power stations to produce low-carbon electricity.
