Summary
Episode 100 of Climate Economics dives into green fertilizer — a fast-evolving sector that could cut agriculture's fossil-fuel dependency. Lucas and Luna break down the economics behind the $120 billion fertilizer market, focusing on a single Norwegian startup's 2026 milestone: producing fossil-free ammonia at a cost within 15% of the conventional gray ammonia price. They explore how green hydrogen, EU carbon pricing, and a new US tax credit are closing the gap. The conversation covers the Haber-Bosch process, the role of the Inflation Reduction Act's 45V hydrogen credit, and why fertilizer imports from Russia and the Middle East may face a cost squeeze. No broad climate cheerleading — just the numbers, the policy levers, and the companies racing to commoditize green nitrogen. #GreenFertilizer #Ammonia #HaberBosch #Decarbonization #Agriculture #CarbonPricing #GreenHydrogen #45V #InflationReductionAct #EUETS #SustainableFarming #FertilizerMarket #NorskHydro #YaraInternational #CFIndustries #Economics #ClimateEconomics #FexingoBusiness Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
