Hy2gen Canada Inc., a subsidiary of Hy2gen based in Germany, has progressed in its renewable ammonia production project, COURANT, in Baie-Comeau, Quebec. The project aims to produce 230,000 metric tons per year of ammonia to help decarbonize the local mining industry and reduce CO₂ emissions in the area. The submission of the project notice to the Minister of the Environment in Quebec marks a significant milestone, initiating an impact study to ensure safety and minimal environmental impact. Project COURANT is not only focused on environmental benefits but also aims to be an economic driver in the region. It is set to create job opportunities, with up to 1,000 jobs during construction and around 300 permanent positions once operational. The project will also prioritize partnerships with local businesses, supporting the development of a resilient industrial ecosystem. Hy2gen emphasizes positive social impact by engaging with the Innus de Pessamit community, a first nation group, during the planning process. The company plans to maintain transparent communication with all local stakeholders through an office in Baie-Comeau. Hy2gen's CEO, Cyril Dufau-Sansot, highlights the project's importance in contributing to decarbonization efforts and the increasing demand for renewable ammonia. The COURANT project, with 300 MW of electrolyzer capacity, will be one of the largest renewable ammonia plants in North America upon its completion in 2030. This achievement sets a precedent for similar projects in the Americas and Nordic countries, showcasing Hy2gen's commitment to sustainable development and supply Europe with renewable fuels for decarbonization efforts.
