Germany\u2019s EnBW signs deal with Acwa for ammonia hydrogen pathway<\/p>\n

BERLIN, Feb 1 (Reuters) \u2013 Germany\u2019s EnBW (EBKG.DE)<\/a>, said on Sunday it had signed a memorandum of understanding with Saudi Arabia\u2019s Acwa (2082.SE)<\/a>, to develop a pathway to import and treat ammonia for use in German hydrogen energy projects.<\/p>\n

Germany is seeking to build up its hydrogen capacity to help it meet clean energy targets, and some 50%-70% of its needs will have to be imported, authorities have said.<\/p>\n

EnBW said in a statement that the MoU, signed during a visit to Saudi Arabia by a delegation led by German Economy Minister Katherina Reiche, included VNG (VNG.UL), one of Germany\u2019s biggest LNG importers, in which it has a majority stake, and the port of Rostock in northeastern Germany.<\/p>\n

EnBW CEO Georg Stamatelopoulos <\/strong>said, adding:<\/p>\n

\n

The signing of this memorandum of understanding is an important milestone for all partners involved,<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWe are driving forward the establishment of a reliable import corridor for green ammonia from Saudi Arabia to Germany\u201d.<\/p>\n

VNG is to develop a cracker facility in Rostock to extract hydrogen from the ammonia to be fed into the German hydrogen core network, the statement said.<\/p>\n

The system is due to go into operation from 2030.<\/p>\n
