Hive Hydrogen Seeks Proposals for $5.8B South Africa Green Ammonia Project
Hive Hydrogen South Africa, a joint venture between the UK's Hive Energy Ltd. and South Africa's BuiltAfrica Group, has issued requests for proposals to 15 shortlisted engineering, procurement, and construction firms for the $5.8 billion Coega Green Ammonia project in the Eastern Cape. The project aims to produce over one million tons of green ammonia annually by leveraging 1,430 MW of solar PV and 1,879 MW of wind power, along with seawater treatment and storage infrastructure, with production expected to start by 2029. The initiative is intended primarily for export markets such as Japan and South Korea and is viewed as a significant step toward establishing South Africa as a key player in green hydrogen production. The project recently received a R360 million development funding agreement and was designated a 'lighthouse' global standard of excellence at the Africa Green Hydrogen Summit. Despite enthusiasm, some skepticism remains about the economic competitiveness of green hydrogen compared to conventional fuels. This milestone follows four years of development work involving a multidisciplinary team and reflects growing international interest, including from engineering companies in East Asia and Europe.
