NitroCapt

NitroCapt is a climate-tech company electrifying one of the world’s largest chemical processes, the nitrogen fertilizer process, using air, water and renewable energy as the only input. The result is not only the most sustainable nitrogen fertilizers, but also the most cost-efficient – a true revolution!

We need fertilizers in order to feed a growing population and nitrogen is the most commonly used plant nutrient. However, the nitrogen fertilizer industry today is fossil-dependent, and the CO2-emissions are at the same levels as the global aviation industry, 500 million tons yearly.

Our award-winning solution provides a quick transition into a decarbonized nitrogen fertilizer industry with a business model that makes our customers more profitable than continuing with fossil-based fertilizers.
