Gentari to Provide 650 MW of Clean Energy to AMG Ammonia

Gentari, the clean energy arm of Malaysia's state-owned Petronas Group, has entered into an agreement to provide 650 MW of clean energy to power AMG Ammonia's upcoming green ammonia facilities. The deal, a firm and binding Power Purchase Agreement (PPA), was signed by Gentari Renewables India Castor One, a subsidiary of Gentari, and AM Green Ammonia India, as stated by both companies.

According to the agreement, Gentari will supply 650 MW of round-the-clock (RTC), carbon-free energy to AMG Ammonia's green ammonia facilities through a long-term PPA. Gentari will also establish approximately 2,400 MWp of renewable energy capacity, consisting of solar and wind power in India, and integrate it with 350 MW/2,100 MWh of energy storage to provide firm and dispatchable green power to AMG Ammonia’s facilities.

The project will be executed in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, with the power demand of AMG Ammonia’s plants being met on an hourly basis.

This power arrangement adheres to the strict specifications outlined under the Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin (RNFBO) framework, enabling AMG Ammonia to target customers in Europe as well as other global markets.

Gentari is also working on developing supply chains to connect these green molecules with global demand centres, alongside expanding downstream solutions, including innovations in shipping and logistics to ensure efficient delivery to international markets, as per the statement, which did not provide further details.

AMG Ammonia is planning to set up green ammonia plants with a capacity of 5 million tonnes per year by 2030. This output will be equivalent to about 1 million tonnes per year of green hydrogen, contributing one-fifth of India’s target for green hydrogen production under the National Green Hydrogen Mission and 10 per cent of Europe's target for green hydrogen imports. AMG Ammonia recently made the final investment decision (FID) for its first million-tonne green ammonia project in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh.
