Ohmium to support FEED for Hynfra’s green ammonia projects in Mauritania, Jordan and Oman

Electrolyzer maker Ohmium has signed a cooperation agreement with Polish developer Hynfra to support front-end engineering and design (FEED) work on large-scale green ammonia projects in Mauritania, Jordan and Oman.

Under the master cooperation agreement announced June 17, California-based Ohmium will provide proton-exchange-membrane (PEM) electrolyzer technology and technical support as the three developments advance through design. The projects are intended to produce renewable ammonia that meets the European Union’s standards for certified green hydrogen derivatives.

The largest of the three, a green ammonia plant in Oman’s Duqm zone, carries a $5.4B price tag and targets 400,000 tonnes per year of output powered by 2.6 GW of renewables. The Mauritania project near Nouakchott would produce about 100,000 tonnes per year, while the Jordan development has secured government approval and is targeting a final investment decision by September 2027.

Hynfra chief executive Tomoho Umeda said Ohmium is one of the company’s PEM electrolyzer partners, adding that it maintains at least two qualified suppliers for each technology category.

For fertilizer markets, the projects add to a growing pipeline of renewable ammonia aimed at both export to Europe and regional supply, though most remain years from production.
