Plans have today (3rd April) been unveiled for a major multi-billion-dollar clean ammonia facility in Mingo County, West Virginia, as an anchor project in the Appalachian Regional Clean Hydrogen Hub’s (ARCH2) application to the US Department of Energy (DOE).
US project partners, including Adams Fork Energy and CNX Resources, hope to start construction on the site in 2024, creating over 2,000 construction jobs.
The Adams Fork Energy clean ammonia project, which will be jointly developed by Adams Fork Energy and the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe, is expected to have initial annual ammonia production capacity of 2.1 million metric tonnes.
