About ATOME
ATOME PLC is an AIM-listed company targeting green fertiliser production with
445-megawatt of projects in Paraguay and a further pipeline of potential
projects in Central America. ATOME is in the early stages of developing a
significant green power generation and infrastructure business.
ATOME's first project in Villeta, Paraguay, benefits from a 145MW renewable
power purchase agreement and 43 hectares of land in a tax-free zone. Front End
Engineering Design studies have been completed and Heads of Terms signed with
Yara International, the leading international fertiliser company, for offtake
of all of Villeta's green fertiliser production. In early 2025, ATOME
announced Hy24, the leading clean hydrogen asset manager, as anchor and lead
equity investor in the project, and confirmed the signing of the US$465
million fixed-price EPC contract with leading ammonia and fertilizer
engineering specialist Casale S.A. The Company is now negotiating the project
finance with a view to commencing work in 2025. There is a further 300MW of
renewable power reserved for ATOME in Paraguay.
In Costa Rica, The National Ammonia Corporation S.A. was formed in 2022 with
local partner Cavendish S.A. based in Costa Rica to develop green fertiliser
projects for the region. As well as straddling the Pacific and Atlantic
Oceans, Costa Rica is a democratic Central American country. In agriculture,
Costa Rica is the second largest supplier of pineapples in the world and is in
the top ten banana growers.
All power for ATOME is from 100% renewable sources and all chosen sites are
located close to the power and water sources and export facilities to serve
significant domestic and then international demand.
The Company has a green-focused Board which is supported by major shareholders
including Peter Levine, Schroders, a leading fund manager, and Baker Hughes, a
global technology company operating in the energy and industry sectors.
