WATERLOO — FuelPositive Corporation provided an update on the progress of its on-farm, containerized Green Ammonia production system and its current sales pipeline for 2023 and beyond.

FuelPositive’s on-farm, containerized Green Ammonia production system is now over 80 per cent complete and its farm readiness impending, having overcome global supply chain delays the company faced throughout 2022.

Both the hydrogen and nitrogen input modules are now fully operational, farm ready and are surpassing both quantity output and purity targets.

“We are thrilled with the near farm readiness of the system today,” said Nelson Leite, COO and Board Director. “Final factory commissioning of our proprietary Green Ammonia synthesis module is currently underway, and the system will be producing Green Ammonia as soon as all safety certifications are completed. As illustrated in the the photograph below, our on-farm containerized Green Ammonia system is now a commercial scale, 100 tonne per year, highly engineered system that is monitored and controlled at over 140 points, which allows FuelPositive to measure and ensure, in real-time, the most optimal operating parameters, on-site.”

FuelPositive’s pre-qualification criteria includes such factors as: type of farming; crop mix; types of nitrogen fertilizers utilized in the past, present and future; sources of green electricity; cost of green electricity; and other specific geographic and political considerations for the integration of our technology on site. The FP300 produces 300KG a day, or just over 100 metric tonnes of Green Anhydrous Ammonia per year on a base model system, with most sales inquiries requiring multiple systems.

“The demand for FuelPositive’s scalable and modular Green Ammonia Technology is not exclusively within the realm of agriculture. We have interest coming in from multiple sectors, including marine, aviation, chemical processing, grid storage, Northern remote and rural communities, and water purification,” said Ian Clifford, CEO and Board Chair.

FuelPositive has opened corporate offices at 420 Weber Street in Waterloo, Ontario which will serve as the corporate and sales headquarters.

“Staff have now expanded into this modern space, situated just blocks from our manufacturing facility and steps away from Laurier University and University of Waterloo with whom we work closely,” said Leite. “This will provide us with more room to grow as we build our sales and engineering teams.”
