Strategic collaborations, technological advancements, and large-scale projects development are significant trends witnessed in the green ammonia market. With production anticipated to hit 25 million tons by 2030 and about 80 million tons by 2035, green ammonia industry will be the key driver in clean energy transformation, hydrogen economy growth, and worldwide carbon neutrality.

Green Ammonia Market Overview 

Green Ammonia refers to ammonia that is produced using renewable power sources such as wind and solar power, yielding zero or minimal carbon emissions. Green ammonia is manufactured through the use of renewable energy to power the electrolysis of water to produce green hydrogen, which is then reacted with atmospheric nitrogen using the Haber-Bosch process to synthesize ammonia. Conventional ammonia production utilizes natural gas, with significant CO₂ emissions.
Green ammonia is a low-carbon substitute for blue or gray ammonia. Fertilizers, marine fuel, electricity generation, chemical feedstock are some of the key applications. A standard green ammonia plant contains components such as Renewable Energy Source, Electrolyzer, Air Separation Unit, Haber-Bosch Reactor, Storage and Distribution Facilities. Process involves Water electrolysis, nitrogen separation, ammonia synthesis, and storage.

Green Ammonia and Green Hydrogen Economy

Green ammonia and green hydrogen have a symbiotic relationship. Green hydrogen is the primary feedstock for the production of green ammonia. The interdependence between the two fuels is central to the new green hydrogen economy, allowing for efficient hydrogen storage, transport, and use in various industries.

Green hydrogen is generated by using electrolysis to split water (H₂O) into oxygen (O₂) and hydrogen (H₂) with power from renewable resources. Green hydrogen is then added to nitrogen derived from the atmosphere using the Haber-Bosch process. This chemical process, when utilized with renewable power, leads to the creation of green ammonia. The price and accessibility of green hydrogen have a direct bearing on the production and economic attractiveness of green ammonia. Any improvement in the production of green hydrogen, for example, more efficient electrolyzers or lower renewable energy prices, will benefit the green ammonia market.

Although green hydrogen is a clean energy carrier, its low volumetric energy density makes it difficult to store and transport. It must either be cryogenically cooled (-253°C) for liquefaction or compressed at high pressure (350–700 bar) to be transported economically. These processes are expensive, energy-intensive, and create infrastructure challenges.

Green ammonia provides a more feasible and cost-efficient method of hydrogen storage and transportation. Ammonia (NH₃) provides a much higher volumetric energy density than hydrogen gas. Green ammonia may be stored and transported in liquid form at moderate pressure and temperature using the existing infrastructure for traditional ammonia. It poses a lower risk of flammability than hydrogen and is therefore safer for bulk storage and distribution. However, conversion efficiency is still a challenge since the conversion of green hydrogen to green ammonia and then back to hydrogen or electricity is an energy-loss process.

What are Green Ammonia Market Segmentations and Market Shares?

Green Ammonia Market Segments based on Technology

Based on technology, Alkaline Water Electrolysis led the green ammonia market with a share of more than 70% of total market in 2024. This is due to the technological maturity of AWE, its scalability and cost savings in reliability, and low capital investment needs. As an alkaline electrolysis solution, AWE systems effectively split water into hydrogen and oxygen. Their mass market adoption is also supported by long-lived operation times and less capital investment needs compared to nascent electrolysis technologies.

Operating at elevated temperatures, SOEC utilize a solid oxide ceramic electrolyte to facilitate water electrolysis, and this is done with higher energy efficiency than low-temperature technologies. SOEC systems can capitalize on waste heat from prevailing industrial processes, minimizing external energy inputs and maximizing overall energy efficiency. Being more operationally efficient, SOECs use less electricity per kilogram of hydrogen generated. Their potential to operate effectively with intermittent renewable energy sources makes SOECs an important part of the backbone for sustainable energy infrastructure, particularly large-scale green ammonia production.

Green Ammonia Market Segments based on Application

  • Chemicals
  • Fertilizers

The fertilizers segment is expected to lead the global green ammonia market during the forecast period. It is so due to the agriculture sector's transition towards environmentally friendly practices to avoid greenhouse gas emissions from conventional ammonia production. Green ammonia is a sustainable feedstock for most fertilizers based on nitrogen like urea, ammonium nitrate, and ammonium sulfate, thereby supporting sustainable agricultural programs.

With decarbonization on the agenda for industries, green ammonia is being widely utilized as a green feedstock in plastic production, synthetic fibers, and other industrial chemicals, propelling growth in the chemicals segment.

Green ammonia can also be used to power fuel cells such as Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) and provide electricity in the form of zero greenhouse gas emissions. SOFCs have the ability to use the direct utilization of ammonia as fuel without the need for complex ammonia cracking schemes. Alternatively, the ammonia can be broken down into hydrogen and nitrogen with the hydrogen utilized in standard hydrogen fuel cells such as Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs), taking advantage of existing hydrogen infrastructure
