The Goal of the New Investment in Ceará Is to Produce 378,140 Tons of Green Hydrogen Per Year

Ceará, more specifically the city of Caucaia, is preparing for the innovative construction of a new green hydrogen plant at the Pecém Industrial and Port Complex. The project is being led by Casa dos Ventos Renewable Energies and has received an initial investment of US$ 900 million. According to Portal Solar, the plant will have an installed capacity of 2.4 GW of electrolysis and aims to produce 378,140 tons of green hydrogen per year. Construction is scheduled to begin in 2025, with operations slated for 2027.

The goal of the investment in Ceará is to boost renewable energy generation and promote sustainable development in the region. In the first phase of the project, the plant will have the capacity to produce 100,000 tons per year of green ammonia. This will be possible thanks to a renewable generation of 140 MWm, coming from solar and wind energy sources. This production of green ammonia will contribute to the industrialization and development supply chain in Caucaia, Ceará, boosting the local economy and generating jobs and income. The investment will be an important milestone for promoting sustainable renewable energy in the city.
