A commitment to innovation and sustainability

NitroPrime is a Belgian company aiming to produce Green Ammonia in south of Morocco where renewable energy is abundant.

A passion for renewable energy and green molecules

NitroPrime aims to contribute to the decarbonization of European industry through the production of green ammonia in Morocco and its importation into Europe.

The missing piece

The role of hydrogen in the transition is well understood and already popular. The industry already knows how and where to produce Green Hydrogen. Lately big players have understood that, to carry Green Hydrogen over long distances, the best solution is to convert it into Green Ammonia. Large projects have been announced, with investment reaching billions of euros. These projects are encouraged by visionary countries and institutions such as Japan, Morocco or the Port of Antwerp-Bruges and others. However, these projects will take years to come out of the ground and only a few have actually pass FID.

These large projects will ensure large quantities of Green Ammonia. However, their time to market is too long to meet the decarbonization needs. Investigations, studies, engineering, construction and commissioning of that size of project are endless.

With NitroPrime we claim to address the need with a fast and agile organisation able to quickly deploy projects with limited risks and fast iteration enabling rapid adaptation and to leverage innovation. Aside the mega projects of the majors, we develop a modular approach.

Project scope

NitroPrime scope will cover the green electricity production (wind/solar mix), the water desalination, the electrolysis and the ammonia loop process, storage and shipment via Moroccan sea infrastructure to Europe.

Reduction of Carbon Emissions

Transitioning to green ammonia can help industries reduce their carbon footprints, supporting global efforts to combat climate change and achieve net-zero targets.

Impact of Green Ammonia and hydrogen on European industry

  • Fertilizer Production: Ammonia is a critical component in fertilizers. Green ammonia provides a sustainable alternative to conventional ammonia production, which relies heavily on fossil fuels. This shift can reduce the carbon footprint of agriculture.
  • Energy Storage and Transport: Green ammonia can serve as an efficient energy carrier, capable of storing renewable energy and transporting it over long distances. It can be converted back into hydrogen or electricity as needed, thereby enhancing energy security and helping to balance supply and demand.
  • Decarbonization of Shipping: The shipping industry is looking for less carbon-intensive fuels. Green ammonia can be used as a fuel for ships, helping to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from maritime transport.
  • Chemical Industry: Green ammonia can be a raw material for producing various chemicals, including methanol, which can lead to more sustainable practices in chemical manufacturing.
  • Power Generation: Ammonia can potentially be used in fuel cells and power generation systems, providing a low-emission alternative to conventional fossil fuels.

“The global green ammonia market size is estimated to be $701 million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of more than 72%, during the forecast period 2024-2032.”
