First Ammonia’s Texas plant reaches new milestone with launch of the first 100MW of Topsoe solid oxide electrolysers
- 12/12/2024
First Ammonia has reached another milestone in the development of its flagship Victoria, Texas green ammonia facility. The company has signed the sales and service agreements with Topsoe for the fabrication of the first 100 MW of solid oxide electrolysers. The project at Port of Victoria, Texas, US, will commence commercial operation in 2027.
The Topsoe factory in Herning enters operation at the end of Q424 and will produce 500 MW of solid oxide electrolysers annually. This milestone follows the remarkable performance of Topsoe’s solid oxide electrolyser demonstration core that has been running in Topsoe’s Frederikssund facility since the end of 2023 under industrial conditions. The testing confirms that the solid oxide electrolyser performs well in a fluctuating operational mode which is required to run on variable solar and wind power generation.
