Roadmap for Distributed Green Ammonia in Minnesota
Accounting for over 1% of global greenhouse gas emissions, ammonia is a crucial component of fertilizer production and a significant contributor to climate change.
Fertilizer plays a significant role in modern agriculture, bolstering crop yields to meet the demands of a growing global population. However, the fertilizer industry is highly emissions intensive. Momentum is building in the green fertilizer space to balance the benefits of fertilizer with more sustainable practices. The first US distributed green ammonia project was commissioned this summer and several more green ammonia projects are under development.
This webinar discusses trends in the ammonia sector, benefits of distributed green ammonia for farmers, and challenges to overcome to accelerate adoption. The session will feature a short presentation from key actors in the green fertilizer space followed by a group panel discussion.
