L&T Arm, Japan’s ITOCHU to Develop 300-ktpa Green Ammonia Project in Gujarat

Larsen & Toubro Ltd. said its wholly-owned unit L&T Energy GreenTech Ltd. has tied up with Japan’s ITOCHU Corp. to develop and commercialise a 300-kilotonne-a-year green ammonia project at Kandla, Gujarat. ITOCHU will offtake the product for bunkering use in Singapore.

The project aligns with L&T Energy GreenTech’s plan to expand across the green energy value chain and supports ITOCHU’s push to promote low-carbon ammonia as a zero-emission marine fuel. L&T had acquired land in Kandla last year for green hydrogen and ammonia projects.
