Vitrenko is convinced that these projects will be profitable, given the support of Germany and special conditions to stimulate the development of green energy. They are deluting the prices of "green" hydrogen and "green" ammonia significantly higher than the corresponding compounds obtained in the traditional way.

The chairman of the board of Naftogaz also said that the company is discussing cooperation projects in this direction not only with German colleagues. In particular, it is planned to raise this issue with American partners during the upcoming visit of the Ukrainian delegation to the United States.
