CoalCO2-X

Last updated:
The CoalCO2-X program is a collaborative mechanism co-funding a project involving three German and five South African partners, coordinated by Germany's Fraunhofer Institute. The program focuses on converting CO2 emissions from South Africa's coal-fired power plants into various commodity chemicals and fertilizers using green ammonia and hydrogen. By capturing and transforming CO2 and other pollutants, the program aims to reduce the environmental impact of these power plants and serve as a key enabler for the decarbonization of the chemical and energy sectors. The project is planned to be conducted between September 2022 and August 2025.
