Mongolia Clean Hydrogen & Ammonia Export Hub
Proposal Title: Mongolia Clean Hydrogen & Ammonia Export Hub
Presented by: Geodyn Solutions
Total Project Cost: USD $650 million
Location: Mongolia
Project Timeline: 3 years construction and ramp-up; 25+ year operational lifespan
Executive Summary
Geodyn Solutions proposes the development of a $650 million Clean Hydrogen and Ammonia Export Hub in Mongolia. This project leverages coal gasification, carbon capture, and renewable energy to produce blue and green hydrogen, convert it to ammonia for safe export, and create carbon credits. It positions Mongolia as a key supplier in the Asia-Pacific hydrogen economy while driving economic growth, job creation, and climate leadership.
Project Components
- Hydrogen Production via Coal Gasification ($250M CAPEX)
- 50 MW-equivalent gasification plant.
- Produces hydrogen from Mongolian coal with integrated CO2 capture (blue hydrogen).
- Geodyn microbes reduce sulfur and nitrogen impurities biologically.
- Renewable Hydrogen Expansion Phase ($150M CAPEX)
- Electrolyzer units powered by solar/wind.
- Produces green hydrogen for blended output.
- Ammonia Conversion & Export Terminal ($150M CAPEX)
- Converts hydrogen into liquid ammonia for export.
- Includes cryogenic storage, loading facilities, and pipelines.
- Carbon Capture, Utilization & Storage (CCUS) System ($50M CAPEX)
- Captures 90%+ of CO2 emissions from coal-based hydrogen.
- Stored underground or used in building materials, algae growth.
- Shared Infrastructure & Grid Integration ($50M CAPEX)
- Includes roads, grid tie-in, and water recycling systems.
Total Operating Expenses (OPEX): $100 million/year
OPEX Breakdown:
- Labor and Personnel: $30 million/year
- Maintenance and Spare Parts: $15 million/year
- Utilities and Water: $20 million/year
- Electricity (for electrolyzers and compression): $10 million/year
- Chemical Reagents and Gas Purification: $10 million/year
- Logistics, Transport & Export Operations: $10 million/year
- Environmental Monitoring & Compliance: $5 million/year
Financial Projections
Metric | Value |
Total CAPEX | $650M |
Annual Revenue | $600M–$900M |
Payback Period | ~4 years (conservative) |
IRR | 35–40% |
NPV (10% discount, 25 yrs) | $2.8B |
Carbon Credit Revenue | $30M+/yr (est.) |
Payback Period Explanation:
While annual revenues of $600M–$900M suggest a potential for rapid capital recovery, actual net cash flow after OPEX, taxes, and ramp-up considerations yields approximately $300M–$500M per year. Accounting for a 1–1.5 year ramp-up phase and staggered revenue realization, the conservative payback period estimate is ~4 years. However, actual financial modeling indicates breakeven could occur as early as year 3:
Year | Assumptions | Net Cash Flow (USD) | Cumulative |
1 | 30% capacity (ramp-up) | $90M | $90M |
2 | 70% capacity | $210M | $300M |
3 | Full operation | $350M | $650M |
4+ | Profit phase | $350M+/yr |
Job Creation & Local Development
Category | Jobs Created |
Construction & Setup | 1,200 |
Plant Operations | 600 |
Export & Logistics | 400 |
Support & Services | 1,500+ |
Total | 3,700+ |
