Blue ammonia is a feedstock for hydrogen.

•  Japan aims to be a world-leader in the use of hydrogen, which is contained in ammonia.
• The country has committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions 26% by 2030 from 2013 levels, under the Paris climate pact.
• Hydrogen from renewable energy that creates no emissions is known as green hydrogen.

This is also good for Saudi…

• In recent months, Aramco has highlighted the low volume of greenhouse gases emitted from pumping Saudi crude, programs to boost gas production and plans to grow carbon-absorbing mangroves.

And for Hydrocarbons

•  “This world-first demonstration represents an exciting opportunity for Aramco to showcase the potential of hydrocarbons as a reliable and affordable source of lowcarbon hydrogen and ammonia,” said Aramco’s chief technology officer, Ahmad Al-Khowaiter.
