Today, roughly 50% of the world’s food production relies on ammonia-based fertilizers, meaning that around half of the world’s food supply is interdependently tied to the steady production and distribution of the natural gas feedstocks from which much of today’s ammonia is made.

Ammonia is one of the most important molecules on the planet. It is a core feedstock for pharmaceuticals, plastics and fertilizer. And now, it is emerging as one of the most promising fuels and energy carriers of the diversifying fuel landscape and low-carbon future. Ammonia is one of the most important molecules on the planet. It is a core feedstock for pharmaceuticals, plastics and fertilizer.

At Topsoe, we have achieved a major breakthrough in next-generation battery technology, demonstrating 1500 charge-discharge cycles with 80% capacity retention in LNMO-graphite battery cells. Cycling data is shown in Figure 1. This represents a 3-5x improvement over conventional LNMO performance and meets the demanding durability requirements for automotive electric vehicle applications.

Topsoe has signed a contract with Uniper, to provide front-end engineering and design (FEED) for the NorthStarH2 e-methanol project in North Sweden. Once operational, the facility is expected to produce around 115,000 tons of e-methanol annually with final investment decision (FID) expected in 2028.

Company announcement No. 11/2026 Link to full half-year statement Topsoe, a leading global provider of advanced energy transition solutions for producing clean and conventional fuels and chemicals, delivers its financial results for the first half of 2026. The financial performance was affected by general market uncertainty and organizational restructuring. Despite slightly lower revenue compared to the same period last year, EBIT was strong and cash generation solid.

Company announcement No. 10/2026 Based on strong execution within our Technology business, and an improved outlook for catalyst sales for the second half of 2026, the full year guidance on revenue and earnings margin is adjusted. The full year outlook for 2026 for revenue is revised to DKK 8,000–8,500 million (previous range DKK 7,600–8,400 million).

The disruption to global oil and gas supplies caused by the conflict in Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz has dominated headlines, with price hikes at the pump and till foremost in consumers’ minds. But the impact on the fertilizer industry could carry an equal, if not more severe, consequence for food prices and supply. To understand why, the process and chemistry that runs from a gas well to fertilizer needs to be explained.

Ammonia synthesis is one of the world’s most important industrial processes. For more than a century, the Haber-Bosch process has supported ammonia production for the global fertilizer industry, helping to feed around 50% of the world's population. Yet even established technologies and processes can continue to evolve in terms of efficiency.
