Plug Power CEO Andy Marsh said the following about this and other contracts:

“Moving this major green hydrogen-to-ammonia project to the BEDP phase is a sign of its maturity in the development process […] In total, we now have 7.5 GW of BEDP contracts globally to support our growth targets.”

Plug Power notes that the final investment decision for Allied Green Ammonia’s plant is set for the fourth quarter of 2025. The company is also set to start delivering Proton Exchange Membrane electrolyzers to Allied Green Ammonia in Q1 2027.
