>> ... would this method result in less CO2 emissions using regular grid
>> electricity, or would it need to be 100% low-carbon electricity? ... Who cares? This is about electricity to ammonia. Given: a very efficient way to make ammonia (as an energy store) using electricity, this becomes a storage mechanism. So then, make ammonia and money whenever the grid is in a 'pay to take power' state, and (up to a point) even if you have to pay. End source is irrelevant. Alternate process: run a solar farm, produce ammonia whenever that's cheaper than paying someone to take the power (or curtail), then sell the stored power when prices are high. Or, sell the ammonia directly. |
