EverWind has released the results of an independent greenhouse gas assessment that confirms its Point Tupper Green Fuels Project can deliver major global climate benefits.

The study, conducted by Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors, validates that the project can reduce global greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 500,000 tpy of carbon dioxide by replacing conventional, fossil fuel-based ammonia with green ammonia (as described below). Over the life of the project, this represents 15 MMt of avoided emissions over the facility’s 30-yr operational lifespan.

The Point Tupper Green Fuels Project is expected to begin construction in 2026. It will produce 240,000 tpy of green ammonia using new wind and solar generation capacity, incremental to Nova Scotia’s current installed wind power. Green ammonia is created from green H₂, which is produced using renewable electricity to split water into H₂ and oxygen, and then combined with nitrogen from the air. This process eliminates the fossil fuels used in conventional ammonia production, which relies on natural gas or coal.

The Dunsky assessment highlights the following key findings:

• Annual emissions reductions: Under Dunsky’s forecasts, the project would avoid approximately 500,000 tpy of carbon dioxide, over the facility’s 30-yr lifespan.
• Cleaner production process: Producing green ammonia can cut emissions by 98 percent, on average, compared to conventional ammonia produced from fossil fuels.
• Support for Nova Scotia’s grid: The project will add renewable energy to the provincial grid, supporting stability and clean power integration.

These outcomes directly support the Government of Canada’s Emissions Reduction Plan, which sets a national target to cut emissions 40% to 45% below 2005 levels by 2030. H₂ plays a central role in the plan. The federal government estimates that clean H₂ must contribute more than 10% of the total reductions needed to meet the 2030 target. This will require Canada to scale up to approximately 15 MMtpy of clean H₂ production.

EverWind’s project contributes to this goal by producing green ammonia, which is essential for decarbonizing hard-to-abate industrial sectors like steel, fertilizers, mining, chemicals, and manufacturing. These sectors must reduce emissions by approximately 38 percent to align with national climate targets.

In addition to emissions reductions, the project supports other federal priorities:

• Creating skilled jobs and attracting investment in rural communities
• Supporting clean technology development and Canadian leadership in the global energy transition
• Increasing domestic energy security by reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels.

With environmental approvals in place and construction planned to begin in 2026, the Point Tupper Green Fuels Project is one of Canada’s most advanced green H₂ and ammonia developments and represents a key part of the country’s clean energy future.

“Our analysis indicates that Canadian green ammonia has the potential to significantly lower global emissions when replacing existing ammonia in its current application. Further, if powered by clean generation and coupled with advanced energy storage options, it can be produced with minimal impacts to Nova Scotia's grid,” said Philippe Dunsky, President & CEO, Dunsky Energy + Climate Advisors.

“Dunsky’s independent assessment confirms what we’re building at Point Tupper: a made-in-Nova Scotia project that delivers real, measurable climate impact at global scale. With our leading green ammonia project and partnering with Mi’kmaq First Nations, we can decarbonize hard-to-abate industries, support Nova Scotia’s grid, and help Canada meet its 2030 targets. This is a win for Nova Scotia, a win for Canada, and a win for our allies who are racing to cut emissions,” said Trent Vichie, Founder and CEO, EverWind.
