Hanwha Q Cells has been participating in clean energy projects in South Korea and overseas .

The company finished building the 168MW solar power plant in Texas and started developing a 380MWhr energy storage system in the same state last year.

Earlier this month, three South Korean firms – Korea Electric Power, Samsung C&T and Korea Western Power – signed an agreement with a UAE firm Petrolyn Chemie to construct a $1bn green hydrogen and ammonia production plant in the UAE.

This plant will be able to generate annually up to 200,000t of green ammonia per year, reported Reuters.

Green hydrogen is generated by splitting water from oxygen with the help of renewable electricity.

It will help to cut down greenhouse gas emissions.

The facility will be constructed in two phases in the KIZAD Industrial Area near Abu Dhabi.
