Applied Research: Bioeconomy, Renewable Carbon & Climate Change

Todays Latest Updates: 01 April 2026

Ammonia production: Jordan. Topsoe will undertake front-end engineering design (FEED) for Hynfra PSA’s 293MW Jordan Green Ammonia (JGA) project. Topsoe will look to integrate its ammonia synthesis technology at the 100,000 tonne-per-year green ammonia plant planned for operation in 2030. Located in the Port of Aqaba, the JGA joint venture between Polish developer Hynfra and the UK’s Fidelity Group aims to deploy 700MW of renewable energy to crate and convert green hydrogen into green ammonia for international fertiliser markets.

Biofuels: The Netherlands. FrieslandCampina, through a collaboration with Future Fuels, member dairy farmers can now more easily switch to renewable diesel (HVO100). This fuel emits up to 90 percent less CO₂ than conventional diesel. Link 01/04/2026.

Biojet/SAF: USA.Gevo, Inc. is developing plans for a potential expansion at the site of its Gevo North Dakota facility in Richardton, North Dakota by adding a second ethanol production facility with targeted production capacity of up to 75 million gallons per year of low-carbon ethanol.

Hydrogen: France. The European Commission approved France’s state aid scheme to support up to 1GW of hydrogen electrolysis capacity, marking a major step in scaling domestic low-carbon hydrogen production. The programme will provide long-term financial support through fixed premiums paid over 15 years, designed to bridge the cost gap between hydrogen produced from clean electricity and cheaper fossil-based alternatives.
