In Bulgaria, Renewables Now reported that Danish developer GreenGo Energy has attracted German energy trader SET Select Energy as a partner in its Megaton Moon power-to-X (PtX) project in Mauritania.
Megaton Moon is planned to produce green hydrogen from seawater and nitrogen extracted from air, which will then be synthesized into green ammonia. The facility should be powered entirely off-grid by solar and wind energy, and its output will meet all European regulatory and technical standards, according to the report.
The project will be implemented in phases, with Phase 1 to see the installation of 500 MW of electrolyzer capacity, targeting an output of 355,000 metric tons of green ammonia annually. A final investment decision (FID) is expected in 2028, with front-end engineering design (FEED) completion planned for 2027 and production launch in 2031.
The second phase should expand capacity to more than 2.5 GW of electrolyzers, producing up to 1.7 million metric tons annually, while the third phase will seek to boost production to 4 million metric tons per year, subject to additional land allocation and market conditions, the report added.
