Clean, Renewable Energy Agreements Inked at Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week 2023

More agreements and partnerships in the field of clean and renewable energy are being signed at the Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week (ADSW) 2023.

Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) has signed a deal with Germany’s Thyssenkrupp Uhde, which specializes in chemical engineering, to develop large-scale ammonia cracking plants.

The memorandum of understanding with the subsidiary of Thyssenkrupp Group is part of a strategy to create new markets for hydrogen and promote global clean energy value chains.

Under the agreement, the two companies will work together to develop commercial-scale ammonia cracking facilities. It will also lead to the exploration of opportunities in the clean energy value chain for the supply and shipment of low-carbon or green ammonia from the UAE to large-scale plants globally.

Also, ADNOC will undertake a pilot project with British-Omani sustainability company 44.01 to permanently convert carbon dioxide from the air into a mineral within rock formations in Fujairah.

The project, which is also being carried out in partnership with the Fujairah Natural Resources Corporation and Masdar, will involve the use of technology that permanently mineralizes carbon dioxide within rock formations found in Fujairah.

The project is due to begin this month and will use 44.01’s carbon capture and mineralization (CCM) technology to eliminate
