Drivers:

A rising global population, increased demand for food, and the push for sustainable farming drive fertilizer use. The emerging role of ammonia in clean energy (especially green and blue variants) further fuels interest

Opportunities:

Advancements in green ammonia produced via renewable-powered electrolysis are gaining momentum, backed by government and private investments such as green projects worth over USD 50 billion.

Restraints:

Conventional ammonia heavily relies on fossil-based feedstocks like natural gas and coal, resulting in significant GHG emissions (~1‑2% of global CO₂), while green ammonia remains costly and in early commercial stages

Trends:

Blue ammonia (with carbon capture) is gaining attention in regulatory-driven markets, while green ammonia sees rapid projected growth (78.2% CAGR through 2032), particularly in Europe.Numerous global renewable energy and green ammonia initiatives are underway, with major investments in India, Germany, Australia, and the U.S.

Market Key Players:

• Yara International ASA
