The extension is expected to provide adequate additional time to finalise and execute Transaction Documents associated with the next phase of the project.<\/p>\n<p>The Cape Hardy Green Hydrogen project comprises a two stage development: Stage I comprising 5 GW of electrolyser capacity, delivering over 5 million tonnes per annum of green&nbsp;ammonia,&nbsp;with&nbsp;the&nbsp;initial phase&nbsp;comprising&nbsp;1GW&nbsp;of&nbsp;capacity. The&nbsp;project&#8217;s&nbsp;second Stage will see doubling of this capacity to 10 GW. Over the previous nine months Amp and Iron Road have also discussed expanding the intent of the Cape Hardy Green Hydrogen project to include an industrial manufacturing precinct centred on the green hydrogen &amp; minerals value chain. Contingent on this will be satisfactory commercial arrangements and assembling a consortium of development partners. Amp together with&nbsp;Iron&nbsp;Road&nbsp;have&nbsp;completed preliminary&nbsp;Master&nbsp;Planning of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Cape&nbsp;Hardy&nbsp;precinct incorporating electrolyser supply, water desalination, ammonia plant and ancillaries.<\/p>\n<p>During the Strategic Framework Agreement period the Cape Hardy Green Hydrogen project has been studied and reviewed by two leading global engineering firms as the project&nbsp;enters&nbsp;the&nbsp;pre\u2013Front-End&nbsp;Engineering&nbsp;Design&nbsp;(pre-FEED)&nbsp;stage.&nbsp;Amp&nbsp;is&nbsp;continuing advanced discussions with numerous Eyre Peninsula landowners, third party energy developers and transmission network specialists, to secure and transmit renewable energy supply to drive lowest cost of ammonia for domestic and export off-take. Ongoing discussion with export and domestic offtake partners, financiers and local councils on the Eyre Peninsula confirms strong interest and unanimous support for the project. Indicative economic analysis at the Pre-Feasibility stage (class 5 engineering) supports an unsubsidised levelised cost of hydrogen of approximately <span class=\"xn-money\">US$3<\/span>\/kg-H2. This equates&nbsp;to&nbsp;a&nbsp;mid&nbsp;US$600\/tonne&nbsp;levelised&nbsp;cost&nbsp;of&nbsp;green&nbsp;ammonia. This&nbsp;costing&nbsp;is&nbsp;consistent with the stage of the project and is subject to ongoing design and&nbsp;economic optimisation, that will reflect the evolving commercial and market landscape.<\/p>\n<p>With&nbsp;continued support&nbsp;from&nbsp;the&nbsp;Barngarla&nbsp;Determination&nbsp;Aboriginal&nbsp;Corporation&nbsp;RNTBC (&quot;BDAC&quot;), Amp is confident the Cape Hardy Green Hydrogen project will provide significant local economic growth and employment opportunities including 1,500 construction, engineering and services jobs and over 300 full time jobs.<\/p>\n<p>For&nbsp;downstream&nbsp;delivery of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Cape&nbsp;Hardy&nbsp;Green Hydrogen&nbsp;project,&nbsp;Amp&nbsp;has&nbsp;recruited Thyl&nbsp;Kint&nbsp;as&nbsp;Project Director.&nbsp;Thyl brings 40 years of global experience, responsible for over&nbsp;$AUD 20 billion in energy project capital expenditure on behalf of global entities including BHP&nbsp;Petroleum,&nbsp;BP,&nbsp;BW&nbsp;Offshore, Kerr&nbsp;McGee,&nbsp;Santos, Shell,&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;IFC&nbsp;(part&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;World Bank).<\/p>\n<p><i>&quot;We&nbsp;have&nbsp;seen&nbsp;a&nbsp;flight&nbsp;to&nbsp;quality&nbsp;from&nbsp;global&nbsp;strategic partners&nbsp;who&nbsp;are&nbsp;looking&nbsp;to&nbsp;partner with projects of scale.
