Brooge Energy Announces Completion of Technical Study by thyssenkrupp Uhde for Green Ammonia Plant


NEW YORK, April 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brooge Energy Ltd, (“Brooge Energy” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BROG), a Cayman Islands-based infrastructure provider, which is currently engaged in clean petroleum products and biofuels and crude oil storage and related services, announced today that the technical study of its Green Hydrogen and Green Ammonia plant conducted by thyssenkrupp Uhde (“thyssenkrupp”) has been completed and delivered.

On September 21, 2022, Brooge Energy announced that it engaged thyssenkrupp to undertake a Technical Concept Study and cost estimate for the proposed green ammonia plant, which is based on thyssenkrupp nucera’s alkaline water electrolysis and thyssenkrupp Uhde ammonia synthesis technologies.

The plant is planned in two phases up to a total of 1950 mtpd export focused green ammonia production facility located in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The plant will produce green ammonia using green hydrogen from solar energy with water and air as raw materials.

The study involved a comprehensive techno-economic analysis of the power-to-ammonia value chain using thyssenkrupp’s proprietary modeling tool. The goal was to evaluate the influence of various factors on the overall cost-effectiveness of the green ammonia plant. This analysis explored multiple scenarios to identify optimal plant designs coming along with various supporting documentation dealing with technical and execution concepts on a fully integrated approach.

“This Technical Concept Study is a significant milestone in our journey towards sustainable energy transition. The study’s results will help us determine the optimal setup for our green ammonia plant and guide our future investment decisions,” said Lina Salah Saheb, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Brooge Energy.
