The Europe Green Ammonia & Hydrogen Decarbonisation Summit

Tuesday 21st & Wednesday 22nd September 2021 @ Rotterdam

“ Ammonia’s chemical compound, consisting of NH3 positions itself to be the perfect carrier of hydrogen fuel supplying hydrogen to different countries that would normally import oil and gas to meet its energy demands. Ammonia can also be a key component to help decarbonise the maritime and shipping sectors as an alternative fuel source. ”

With COVID-19 disrupting the energy mix globally and the demand for oil and gas plummeting, many
countries have now released their green recovery plan with hydrogen production being at the
forefront. Hydrogen is now labelled as the fuel of the future, with all the super major oil and gas
companies committing to green hydrogen production, ammonia now has a key role to play.

Ammonia’s chemical compound, consisting of NH3 positions itself to be the perfect carrier of
hydrogen fuel supplying hydrogen to different countries that would normally import oil and gas to
meet its energy demands. Ammonia can also be a key component to help decarbonise the maritime
and shipping sectors as an alternative fuel source.

The European Green Ammonia & Hydrogen Decarbonisation Summit will address the latest
developments and opportunities across green ammonia and hydrogen sectors. It will determine
strategies for greater decarbonisation of the energy intensive industries, shipping and maritime
sectors. It will bring together 250+ decarbonisation policy makers, industry and innovators, the two dayamm summit will address approaches for accelerating the rollout of innovative decarbonising
technologies.

With COVID-19 changing the energy demand and energy matrix over the last 12 months, many countries have now outlined their own hydrogen roadmaps which detail the backbone for a greener recovery. In this session we will discuss how ammonia can be part of this new transition, given ammonia’s chemical properties. NH3 makes it the perfect carrier fuel to help decarbonise the shipping, maritime and industrial sectors.

Schedule:

9:25 Chairs opening address
12:00 Ditte Juul Jørgensen, Director General, European Commission
9:50 Paolo Frankl, Head of Renewable Energy Division, International Energy Agency
10:10 Ammonia Energy Association
10:30 Main Sponsor
10:50 10.50 Q&A
11:00 Coffee & Networking Break

Within this session we will review the different projects globally for green ammonia production, we also discuss the opportunities across Europe which has great potential for ammonia manufacturing to transform their current production to produce green ammonia.

Schedule:

11:45 Rob Stevens, VP Ammonia Energy & Shipping, Yara
12:05 Case Study
12:25 Bunro Shiozawa, Senior Associate, Sumitomo Chemical
12:45 Case Study
13:05 Q&A
13:15 Lunch & Networking Break

With the development of new technology and new energy sources the old infrastructure will now need to be developed extensively. This session will discuss what infrastructure will need to be in to produce green ammonia.

10:30 Case Study
10:50 Q&A
11:00 Lunch & Networking Break

With the energy matrix evolving globally this session will discuss how green ammonia production will fit within the energy mix across Europe and what industries it can help decarbonise as the world leaders look to achieve its Paris Climate Change Agreement target by 2050.

Schedule:

11:45 Case Study
12:05 Energy Transition Panel Discussion

Clare Jackson, Senior Consultant, Ecuity

Pytsje Bakker, New Business Development Manager, Energy Transition
12:45 Lunch & Networking Break

With ammonia having the chance to provide countries globally with hydrogen and nitrogen, this session will discuss the positive impact it can have across many different sectors. We will also review what investment will be needed to make projects commercially viable.
