Yara strategy focused on profitable decarbonization, strengthening ammonia and crop nutrition core
Key global trends
Climate emergency and
decarbonization
Geopolitical shocks and
challenging energy position in Europe
Global food system
transformation
Strategic response
Decarbonize and diversify energy position through profitable growth in low-carbonammonia and premium low-carbonfertilizers
Improve future competitiveness of ammonia and crop nutrition production through more favorable and diversified energy cost position
Establish long-term growth platform within new business areas through selective organic growth supported by strategic partnerships
Key projects and priorities
- Sluiskil CCS: FID confirmed, estimated start-up 2026
- 2024 roll-out of fertilizers produced in
Porsgrunn with green ammonia - Assessment of asset footprint
- New commercial offerings, including expanding organic and biostimulant portfolio
- Blue ammonia projects in US: continue to mature towards targeted FID 2H2025

Ammonia needs to be decarbonized to reach Yara's ambition of carbon neutrality by 2050
Significant emission reductions already achieved - next step decarbonization of ammonia
- Decarbonization journey has already started with significant emission reductions since 2005
- Implemented projects has provided significantly lower EU ETS costs for Yara
- "Easier-to-implement-projects"mainly concluded, next step requires us to decarbonize ammonia
- Ammonia is the nitrogen source for all nitrogen products and the main source of emissions
- Decarbonization needs to be profitable and follow the same decision process as other investments
- Stable and predictable government incentives and regulation supports project returns
