What do we think of this?
We do need truly green hydrogen for its use as a chemical in so many processes. But almost all H2 is used in close proximity to where it is produced because of how difficult it is to move around. So how do the economics/efficiencies of that stack up?

Green Hydrogen and ammonia. So it looks like they generate the H2 in situ, store it locality, then produce the ammonia from it. Ticks the box that it has two sources of reneable energy (wind, hydro) for inputs, (and who knows, maybe even tidal at some point in other places in the Newfie grid freeing up power locally).

Seems realistic in principle, no idea about the practice. Shipping ammonia is a known quantity though, and that's in a good location for shipping to Europe or down east coast USA
