PERTH (miningweekly.com) – Green energy developer Fortescue Future Industries (FFI) and the North Kalimantan provincial government of the Republic of Indonesia have signed a cooperation agreement to explore the potential for renewable energy and green hydrogen projects.

The agreement follows on from a memorandum of understanding, inked in July this year.

FFI is hoping to produce green hydrogen and green ammonia in North Kalimantan for domestic use and export markets. The potential projects to be further studied under the cooperation agreement will use renewable power and will be built in North Kalimantan province.

The proposed projects will provide significant economic benefits to the people of North Kalimantan and are planned to be to the highest standards of social and environmental sustainability. FFI will agree to have a specific focus on increasing local labour expertise and utilisation of local goods and services.

FFI CEO Julie Shuttleworth said FFI was supportive of Indonesia’s efforts to decarbonise its economy.

“We look forward to working together with the provincial government and local communities to help place North Kalimantan at the forefront of developing renewable resources that will power green hydrogen and green ammonia production,” Shuttleworth said.

Building on FFI’s preliminary study conducted earlier this year, in 2022 FFI will undertake further studies with a view to potentially develop an industrial processing facility that is capable of producing approximately 650 000 t of green hydrogen for conversion to 3.7-million tonnes of green ammonia per year.

The potential development is subject to the outcome of the further studies and Fortescue board approval.

“I express my gratitude and high appreciation, because as a follow-up to the signing of the collective agreement carried out earlier this year, today the signing of the Cooperation Agreement on the implementation of the development of environmentally friendly energy and industry in North Kalimantan Province can be done,” North Kalimantan provincial Governor, Drs. H. Zainal A. Paliwang, SH., M.Hum said.

“Hopefully this cooperation agreement can be beneficial for both parties – for the North Kalimantan provincial government as well as for PT. Indonesia Fortescue Infrastructure.”
