Developer
AM Green
AM Green is named in the MNRE project record and in the developer's FID release.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier AAM Green · Tier BPublic stage
Under construction; FID reported by AM Green
Under construction is the MNRE status. The FID wording is retained as an attributed developer statement.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier AAM Green · Tier BPublic location
Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh
Both the MNRE record and AM Green's FID release identify Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier AAM Green · Tier BPublicly listed product
Ammonia
The MNRE record lists Ammonia and the FID release describes green ammonia production.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier AAM Green · Tier BAssociated production unit
Green hydrogen generation unit
The developer release describes a green hydrogen generation unit and subsequent conversion to green ammonia.
AM Green · Tier BPublicly described intended use
Green ammonia for industrial applications and green hydrogen uses
The developer release describes offtake term sheets and a range of green hydrogen applications.
AM Green · Tier BExport intent
Most production is described as intended for export to European markets
This is an attributed AM Green statement and is not an independent HyGOAT conclusion.
AM Green · Tier BMNRE SIGHT linkage
AM Green Ammonia (India) Private Limited — GHP-SIGHT-M1T2-B1-AMGAPL-90000MT
The MNRE SIGHT table lists the bidder, project identifier, production capacity, effective date, and SCD.

Capacity claims stay in their source scope
Values below are reproduced with their source labels and units. Where sources describe different scopes, the profile keeps them separate rather than selecting a preferred number.
Expected / announced capacity
176.5KTPA
Scope: MNRE record: AM Green Kakinada Hydrogen- Project I
Displayed exactly as the MNRE KTPA field for Project I.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier AElectrolyser capacity
1119.36MW
Scope: MNRE record: AM Green Kakinada Hydrogen- Project I
Displayed exactly as the MNRE electrolyser field for Project I.
Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India · Tier ATarget production
1,000,000tonnes per year of green ammonia
Scope: AM Green FID release: first million-ton green ammonia project in Kakinada
This is the developer's project-level target and is not merged with the MNRE Project I field.
AM Green · Tier BPower enabled for the facility
1,300MW round-the-clock carbon-free power
Scope: AM Green FID release: Kakinada facility
The release describes 1,300 MW enabled through solar, wind, and pump storage capacity.

GHCI-relevant public evidence domains
Each domain shows the public state and the exact sources that informed it. A domain state is not a scheme outcome.
GHCI evidence domain
Project identity
The MNRE record and AM Green release identify the Kakinada project and developer.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
GHCI evidence domain
Project stage
The MNRE record lists the project as under construction; AM Green separately reports FID.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
GHCI evidence domain
Location and facility scope
The reviewed sources place the project in Kakinada and describe an existing urea facility conversion.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
GHCI evidence domain
Production pathway
The developer release describes green hydrogen generation followed by conversion to green ammonia.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
GHCI evidence domain
Capacity scope
The MNRE Project I fields and AM Green facility targets use different scopes and are shown separately.
Eligible sources materially differ, so HyGOAT has not reconciled the claim.
GHCI evidence domain
Renewable electricity
AM Green describes round-the-clock carbon-free power enabled through solar, wind, and pump storage capacity.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
GHCI evidence domain
GHG method
The reviewed sources do not provide a complete project-specific public GHG method for this profile.
The reviewed public sources did not sufficiently support this item. The evidence may still exist privately.
GHCI evidence domain
Traceability and MRV
The reviewed sources do not set out the complete owner-held traceability and monitoring record.
The reviewed public sources did not sufficiently support this item. The evidence may still exist privately.
GHCI evidence domain
Programme and end use
The sources describe green ammonia, green hydrogen applications, and an MNRE SIGHT linkage.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
RFNBO lens
RFNBO-relevant public evidence domains
This overlay is present because the reviewed developer source states European export intent. Each statement remains attributed and does not establish a private evidence file or a scheme outcome.
RFNBO evidence domain
Export intent
AM Green's FID release states that most production is intended for European markets.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
RFNBO evidence domain
Renewable electricity statement
AM Green's public release describes round-the-clock carbon-free power and a related renewable generation mix.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
RFNBO evidence domain
Attributed pre-certification statement
AM Green's June 2024 release reports CertifHy EU RFNBO pre-certification for the Kakinada green ammonia project.
A cited eligible public source supports this item within the review window.
RFNBO evidence domain
Traceability and monitoring statement
The reviewed developer material does not provide the complete owner-held evidence file for this domain.
The reviewed public sources did not sufficiently support this item. The evidence may still exist privately.
Owner boundary
What remains owner-confirmed
- The relationship between the MNRE Project I fields and the wider Kakinada facility scope described by AM Green.
- Current renewable power contracts, operating data, and project-boundary evidence.
- The owner-held documentation behind any RFNBO pathway and the status of the attributed pre-certification statement.
