The two companies agreed to collaborate on the exploration, construction and operation of the facility at Bord Gáis Energy’s Whitegate combined cycle gas turbine power station.
The project aims to use low-carbon ammonia as a fuel source to generate power.
In October 2023, the company began operations at the PowerSouth Energy Co-operative’s 693MW Lowman Energy Center (LEC) in Leroy, Alabama, US.
The LEC project replaced the 556MW Charles R Lowman coal-fired power plant.
