India’s $1 billion clean fuel gets gateway to Europe as AM Green ties up with Port of Rotterdam

AM Green, backed by the founders of Greenko Group, has partnered with the Port of Rotterdam Authority to establish a dedicated green fuel corridor linking India with Northwestern Europe. The alliance aims to enable annual trade of up to 1 million tonnes of green fuels, such as green ammonia and sustainable aviation fuel, valued at nearly $1 billion.

The two sides have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to develop a green energy supply chain that will connect India’s emerging green hydrogen production clusters with Europe’s largest energy gateway, the Port of Rotterdam.

The collaboration will focus on key elements such as supply of bunkering fuels and sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs), as well as planning for critical terminal infrastructure in Rotterdam and along the wider European supply chain. The goal is to enable the safe and efficient distribution of hydrogen-based fuels from India to Europe.

“AM Green is pushing its ambitious goal to develop 5,000,000 tonnes of Green Ammonia production capacity by 2030, equivalent to about 1,000,000 tonnes of Green Hydrogen to meet the rising global demand for green fuels, with initial production starting in Kakinada,” the company said in a statement.

Production at AM Green’s green ammonia facility in Kakinada, Andhra Pradesh, is expected to begin in the second half of 2026. The ₹12,500-crore project will include a green hydrogen generation unit and an ammonia conversion plant within a repurposed urea facility the company acquired earlier this year.

The first phase targets exports to Europe, with AM Green having already secured offtake agreements with major buyers such as Uniper, Yara, and Keppel to support various green hydrogen applications.

“This partnership is part of our ambitious global growth strategy in green fuels, including 5 million tonnes per annum of green ammonia and 1 million tonnes per annum of SAF,” said Anil Chalamalasetty, founder of AM Green and Greenko Group.

“This collaboration marks a significant milestone in establishing a global carbon-free energy ecosystem. It will enable the seamless movement of green molecules and fuels from India to Europe, reinforcing AM Green's position as a global clean energy transition platform and accelerating industrial decarbonisation globally.”

The Port of Rotterdam is a major European logistics hub, with around 13% of the continent’s total energy demand entering through the port. Its infrastructure and geographic location make it a key node in Europe’s green energy ambitions.

“With India's vast potential for green hydrogen production, combined with Rotterdam's strategic location and advanced infrastructure, the collaboration will lead to a robust and sustainable green energy supply chain between the two regions,” said Boudewijn Siemons, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority.

In January, AM Green had also partnered with global logistics firm DP World to develop advanced green fuel storage and export facilities, both in India and overseas, further strengthening its push into international markets.

The partnership with Rotterdam is seen as a significant step toward fulfilling both India’s National Green Hydrogen Mission and Europe’s decarbonisation goals.
