About ATOME
ATOME PLC is an AIM listed company
targeting green fertiliser production with 445-megawatt of projects
in Paraguay and a further pipeline of potential projects in Central
America.
The first project is at Villeta in
Paraguay. It benefits from a 145MW renewable power purchase
agreement and 30 hectares of land in a tax free zone. Front End
Engineering Design studies have been completed and Heads of Terms
signed with Yara, the leading international fertiliser company for
offtake of all of Villeta's production. The Company is now
negotiating the project finance with a view to commencing
work by end 2024. There is a further 300MW of renewable power
reserved for ATOME in Paraguay.
In Costa Rica, The National Ammonia
Corporation S.A. was formed in 2022 with local partner Cavendish
S.A. based in Costa Rica to develop green fertiliser projects for
the region. As well as straddling the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans,
Costa Rica is a democratic Central American country. In
agriculture, Costa Rica is the second largest supplier of
pineapples in the world and is in the top ten banana
growers.
All power for ATOME is from 100%
renewable sources and all chosen sites are located close to the
power and water sources and export facilities to serve significant
domestic and then international demand.
The Company has a green-focused
Board which is supported by major shareholders including Peter
Levine, Schroders, a leading fund manager, and Baker Hughes, a
global technology company operating in the energy and industry
sectors.
