Northern Plains Nitrogen

When you’ve been in the fertilizer industry as long as our team has, it’s concerning to see some of the decisions being made regarding North Dakota's #energytransition and #foodsecurity. We need to transition to #lowcarbon production, and #blueammonia is a practical pathway that supports the state’s energy industry while providing stability and visibility for farmers and growers when it comes to food production inputs. If you want to get to green, you need to start with blue. Attempting to jump directly to green risks destabilizing North Dakota’s energy sector and makes operations uncompetitive, leading to higher fertilizer prices year-round. How is that a viable proposition? And realistically, since when do utilities understand fertilizer production? At NPN, we take a #pragmatic approach to the low-carbon transition. The distributors we work with have been clear—they want NPN fertilizer production integrated into their supply chains. Our offer is simple: year-round viable domestic fertilizer production that supports the energy sector’s transition to a low-carbon economy. #NorthernPlainsNitrogen https://lnkd.in/e9paE4Tm

Following the sale of OCI Global's Beaumont blue ammonia facility to Woodside Energy, another low-carbon ammonia project attacks interest from upstream players. At Northern Plains Nitrogen, we understand the benefits of blue ammonia in our national energy transformation, especially when combined with production of urea fertilizer. North Dakota has once again the chance to play a leading role in energy independence and food security. North Dakota Newswire Woodside Energy OCI Global aramco ExxonMobil https://lnkd.in/ebSxXcG4

For O&G companies like Marathon Petroleum Corporation, TC Energy, and others, investing in blue #ammonia and #urea production can be a strategic path to ensure #decarbonization of downstream operations, with captured #CO2 reinjected into their well formations. This approach enhances food security, lowers emissions, and bridges today's reality with tomorrow's necessity. Northern Plains Nitrogen is ready. https://lnkd.in/eehbMGt6 #CCS #LowCarbonTransition #NPN The Bismarck Tribune Joey Harris

Happy 4th of July from NPN! 🎆 To North Dakota growers who rely on top-quality local fertilizers, and to the dedicated people in our energy sector striving for low-carbon solutions, we salute you. Together, we are enhancing U.S. fertilizer independence and strengthening America's food security. 🌾🌽 Enjoy a day filled with joy, love, and the company of family and friends! 🎉👨👩👧👦❤️ #IndependenceDay #NorthDakota #FoodSecurity #NPN

Waterway delays - one less risk to worry about. Northern Plains Nitrogen ensures that North Dakota and regional farmers and growers have a reliable supply of quality low-carbon nitrogen, mitigating the impact of waterway delays on fertilizer shipments. https://lnkd.in/e9--4AFQ

Carbon capture and storage (#CCS) is a key technological solution in our fight against climate change. By investing in and improving CCS infrastructure, the US is taking necessary steps toward reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This technology is crucial for #capturing emissions from industrial and power generation sources and storing them safely, helping #mitigate global warming effectively. discover the Northern Plains Nitrogen Project: https://lnkd.in/gSwyjBt3 #CCS #BlueAmmonia #NorthenPlainsNitrogen #NorthDakotaSustainability https://lnkd.in/dVBwtkQK

While increasing our use of renewable power is vital for a sustainable future, the demand for renewable energy across various sectors is rapidly increasing. By focusing on #blueAmmonia, Northern Plains Nitrogen helps balance the energy needs of other industries, allowing renewable power to be allocated where it is most needed. Carbon Capture and Storage (#CCS) considers the need for a stable power supply, the low carbon #emission profile of our product, and the #cost of production. This strategic use of resources ensures that the overall transformation into a low-carbon economy is #smooth and #efficient. #BlueAmmonia #LowCarbonFertilizers #NorthernPlainsNitrogen #NorthDakota https://lnkd.in/eP6VXwfU

Another great overview of Carbon Capture by Global CCS Institute "Simply put, we are running out of time to reduce our global emissions and it is becoming increasingly clear that any realistic path forward on climate action will include CCS." https://lnkd.in/ecZY6cqM #Sustainability #Transparency #EnergyTransition #LowCarbon #Agriculture #NorthDakota

Blue #ammonia production utilizes existing technology and energy infrastructure while advancing carbon capture and sequestration (#CCS). This approach results in a more #affordable product compared to green ammonia, helping farmers manage their input costs while still supporting environmental sustainability. #Farmers have historically faced challenges in finding reliable markets for their crops, and by implementing carbon capture, such as by using the #Summit Carbon Pipeline, we can significantly reduce greenhouse gases, while also enabling a sustainable, lower-carbon future. Our blue ammonia ensures that #sustainability and economic viability go hand in hand for the #agricultural community. #BlueAmmonia #NorthernPlainsNitrogen #SummitCarbon Summit Carbon Solutions | Northern Plains Nitrogen

Moving in the right direction By focusing on blue ammonia, Northern Plains Nitrogen can provide a #sustainable, cost-effective solution that meets regional agricultural needs while contributing to #environmental goals. #BlueAmmonia #NorthernPlainsNitrogen #SummitCarbon Summit Carbon Solutions | Northern Plains Nitrogen https://lnkd.in/eQkwYhvm
