Blue ammonia, as opposed to gray ammonia, is conventional ammonia for which the CO2 byproduct has been captured and stored, reducing its impact on the climate. These types of programs have been launched by a number of fertilizer producers in recent years. The main factors propelling the growth of the Japan blue ammonia market are the country's intentional transition to hydrogen and ammonia as renewable energy sources, its goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2050, and the significant financial support offered by financing and laws. Given that it functions as a low-carbon substitute for traditional fuels, especially when cofiring with coal, the production of blue ammonia from natural gas in conjunction with carbon capture and storage (CCS) is an alluring choice for decarbonizing power generation.

Report Highlights:

• Japan blue ammonia market size is valuated at USD 22.0 Million in 2025.
• Target market size is estimated to be valuated at USD 40.0 Million by 2035 and at a CAGR of 20.2%.
• The majority of market share in Japan blue ammonia market has been captured by Steam Methane Reforming (SMR).
• 99.99% purity encompasses the biggest Japan blue ammonia market share based on purity.
• On the basis of application, power generation held the largest Japan blue ammonia market share.
• The utilities sector prevails in the Japan blue ammonia market, on the account of end-user industry.

Key Highlights:

• In June 2025, Japanese oil tycoon Inpex, with its headquarters in Niigata prefecture, has started commissioning the country's first blue hydrogen and ammonia pilot. The project is expected to produce around 700 tonnes of blue hydrogen per year starting in the fall of this year, with CO2 being captured and stored in depleted reserves in the nearby Higashi-Kashiwazaki gas field.

The Emergence of Blue Ammonia in Energy Transition:

As part of the global movement to switch to low-carbon energy sources, the idea of blue ammonia has gained popularity recently. Blue ammonia has established itself as a key participant in the energy landscape of the future because to the push to lower greenhouse gas emissions and the demand for sustainable energy solutions.

Overview of Blue Ammonia Production Process:

Blue ammonia is made by synthesizing ammonia (NH3) from nitrogen (N2) and hydrogen (H2), using a technique called steam methane reforming (SMR) to get the hydrogen from natural gas. The use of Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) technology, which absorbs and stores the CO2 emissions generated during hydrogen creation, is the primary differentiator in the manufacture of blue ammonia.
