Envision launches world’s largest green hydrogen plant in Inner Mongolia
South China Morning PostFriday, July 11, 2025 at 7:17:09 AM
China’s Envision Energy just flipped the switch on the world’s biggest green hydrogen and ammonia plant in Inner Mongolia—a major step in the global race to clean up heavy industries like shipping and manufacturing. The first phase alone can churn out 320,000 tonnes of green ammonia yearly, turning wind power into fuel without the carbon footprint. Envision’s CEO calls it a "technological milestone," but it’s also a strategic play: China wants to lead the clean-energy transition, starting with sectors that are tough to decarbonize.
Editor’s Note: Green hydrogen is a big deal because it could replace fossil fuels in industries where batteries or solar alone won’t cut it—think steelmaking or long-haul shipping. China’s pouring resources into this tech not just for climate cred but to control a future energy market. If this plant scales up, it could push costs down globally and speed up the shift away from oil and coal. For everyone else, it’s a sign that the clean-energy arms race is heating up.
