World’s Largest Green Ammonia Plant Planned Near Kakinada Port
A very big plant is being built near Kakinada Port in India to make green ammonia, which is a clean fuel.
This plant will be one of the largest in the world and will use solar and wind energy to make the ammonia.
The plant will create jobs and help India export clean fuel to other countries.
The construction is starting now, and the plant will be fully operational in a few years.
A large green ammonia production facility is being developed near Kakinada Port in Andhra Pradesh.
The project has entered the construction phase with initial groundwork and equipment erection activities underway.
The facility is designed for a total production capacity of 1.5 million tonnes per annum of green ammonia.
The project involves an estimated investment of around ₹13,000 crore and spans several hundred acres.
Green ammonia production will rely on renewable electricity-based hydrogen, produced using solar and wind energy.
