Zhero Molecules Walvis Bay (Pty) Ltd

Zhero Molecules Walvis Bay (Pty) Ltd is a Namibian company serving as the project vehicle for an industrial-scale green ammonia facility near Walvis Bay in the Erongo Region of Namibia. The project is being developed by Zhero Europe, which is controlled by Zhero B.V., a Netherlands-based renewable energy developer. The Zhero Molecules Walvis Bay Project represents Zhero's green molecules initiative, designed to produce 500,000 tonnes of green ammonia annually once operational, expected in 2030. The project is powered by an integrated renewable energy system comprising 3 gigawatts of solar photovoltaic capacity, 2.2 gigawatt-hours of battery energy storage, a 1.6 gigawatt electrolyser system, and 110 kilometres of new transmission infrastructure. In December 2025, development funding of USD 5.15 million was secured from SDG Namibia One Fund through an agreement with Zhero Europe to complete feasibility studies and development activities, targeting a final investment decision in 2027.
