Megaton Moon Power-to-X Project
Sector: Solar • Location: Nouakchott, Mauritania
Source: Fuel Cells Works
The Megaton Moon project is a large-scale green ammonia production facility located 20 km south of Nouakchott, Mauritania. It will be powered entirely off-grid by solar and wind energy, utilizing seawater desalination and nitrogen extraction to produce green hydrogen, which will be synthesized into green ammonia. The facility aims to support decarbonization across industries such as fertilizers, r
