The project notice submittal to Quebec\u2019s Minister of the Environment, Fighting Against Climate Change, Wildlife and Parks, marks the transition from planning to impact assessment and is a significant step toward establishing one of North America\u2019s largest renewable ammonia production plants. <\/p>\n
It marks the transition from planning to impact assessment, a crucial step in ensuring the project meets environmental and safety standards.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the submission of the project notice to the Minister, our project COURANT has reached a significant milestone toward its realisation,\u201d said Cyril Dufau-Sansot, CEO, Hy2gen.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have been welcomed with open arms and want to repay the trust we have received. The demand for renewable ammonia is growing, and with a working logistics network, it can be imported and used in the EU at lower costs than renewable ammonia produced in Europe.\u201d<\/p>\n
Decarbonisation<\/strong><\/p>\n The COURANT plant, set to produce 230,000 tonnes of renewable ammonia annually, will firstly help decarbonise the mining industry in Quebec.<\/p>\n But importantly, it will also serve as a proof of concept for Hy2gen\u2019s other ammonia projects in the Americas and Nordic countries, which will also supply renewable ammonia to European industries.<\/p>\n This alternative fuel source will support climate goals while creating up to 1,000 jobs during construction and 300 permanent positions once operational.<\/p>\n The site\u2019s strategic location in Baie-Comeau offers easy access to port facilities, electrical infrastructure and an industrial park, ensuring seamless integration into local and global supply chains. <\/p>\n The plan is for construction of the plant to begin in 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hy2gen has submitted a project notice for its COURANT renewable ammonia plant in Quebec Canada, which aims to serve as a model for future initiatives in the Americas and Nordic regions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":5135,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,33,8],"tags":[40,43,107,2001,2002],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-5134","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-americas-greenport","category-projects-initiatives-greenport","tag-alternative-fuels","tag-ammonia","tag-canada","tag-hy2gen","tag-renewable-ammonia"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5134","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5134"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5134\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5136,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5134\/revisions\/5136"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5134"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5134"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5134"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=5134"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
