Today, the Court of Appeal has ruled against Greenpeace in its challenge to the High Court\u2019s ruling to greenlight consent for hydrogen expansion of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser production at the K\u0101puni factory in Taranaki, but despite this ruling, Greenpeace is calling on Hiringa Energy to commit to a timeframe for transitioning from fertiliser production to transport fuel.<\/p>\n\n

Greenpeace Aotearoa programme director Niamh O’Flynn says, “This is a loss for the climate and for fresh water in Aotearoa, as well as for local hap\u016b of Ng\u0101ruahine, who also have issues with the project, but we call on Hiringa Energy to do the right thing and commit to a transition out of fertiliser production within five years as well as honouring the wishes of local hap\u016b with regards to the location of the wind turbines.”<\/p>\n\n

“Climate justice is interconnected with te Tiriti justice, so working with iwi and hap\u016b must be central to all new energy infrastructure developments. It is vital for the success of these projects to do right by local M\u0101ori and the environment,” says O\u2019Flynn.<\/p>\n\n

Greenpeace and local hap\u016b of Ng\u0101ruahine will regroup to determine the next course of action relating to the project.<\/p>\n\n

With the support of Hap\u016b of Ng\u0101ruahine<\/a> in South Taranaki, Greenpeace opposed the proposal by fertiliser company Ballance Agrinutrients and Hiringa Energy<\/a> to use wind power to generate \u2018green\u2019 hydrogen. The challenge concerned the consenting panel\u2019s failure to lock in any fixed timeframe by which Hiringa must stop using the hydrogen plant for making synthetic nitrogen fertiliser (urea) and to instead transition its production to clean vehicle fuel only.<\/p>\n\n

O\u2019Flynn says, “With their dogmatic refusal to put an end date on the proposed plant\u2019s use for producing climate-killing urea, Hiringa and Ballance agri-nutrients are giving wind energy a bad name in one of the regions where important opportunities exist to use wind as a means of transition away from oil and gas.”<\/p>\n\n

“Of course, Greenpeace supports wind power and green hydrogen, but not if it\u2019s being used to create the products that cause climate change, kill rivers and contaminate drinking water.<\/p>\n\n

“Fonterra and the dairy industry are New Zealand\u2019s biggest climate and freshwater polluters, and it is synthetic nitrogen fertiliser that drives that pollution,” says O\u2019Flynn.<\/p>\n\n

Urea is the primary form of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser, and to make it, you need hydrogen. For urea synthesis, hydrogen is the building block for ammonia compounds, which are used as a feedstock for urea production. In the process of making ammonia and urea, hydrogen is the most sought-after commodity because it does not freely exist in nature.<\/p>\n\n

The Kapuni factory, built in 1982 under Robert Muldoon\u2019s “Think Big” program, is the only place in New Zealand where urea is made. The dairy industry uses 63% of all synthetic nitrogen fertilisers in New Zealand (including those imported by the other fertiliser giant Ravensdown) to drive highly polluting forms of intensive animal farming.<\/p>\n\n

Synthetic nitrogen fertiliser<\/a> is added to the land to supercharge pasture growth so the land can be crammed with too many cows. Here in Aotearoa, it is directly responsible for more climate pollution than the entire domestic aviation industry. Synthetic nitrogen fertiliser is in large part responsible for pushing dairy farming to extreme levels of intensity – making dairying New Zealand\u2019s most polluting industry of the land, freshwater, the climate and the marine coastal environment.<\/p>\n\n

The dairy industry is New Zealand\u2019s primary source of methane and nitrous oxide (from urea and cow excreta), which are superheating greenhouse gases – cooking the climate far faster than carbon dioxide. It is also the main cause of nitrate contamination of groundwater<\/a> (from cow urine and urea) which is turning rural people\u2019s drinking water carcinogenic.<\/p>\n\n

O\u2019Flynn says, “If we are to solve climate change and protect our rivers and drinking water sources, we need to phase out the use of synthetic nitrogen fertiliser and significantly reduce the number of dairy cows.”<\/p>\n\n

Timeline <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n

18 August 2021<\/strong><\/a>, Hiringa Energy lodged a resource consent application with the EPA. <\/p>\n\n

Hiringa Energy Limited and Ballance Agri-Nutrients Limited applied to develop a renewable green hydrogen hub at Kapuni, Taranaki. Electricity will be generated by four wind turbines to provide baseload power to nearby Ballance Agri-Nutrients Kapuni ammonia-urea manufacturing plant, and produce hydrogen from water via electrolysis.<\/p>\n\n

02\u00a0 November 2021<\/strong><\/a> – Greenpeace made a submission with F&B and EDS arguing that the consent for the Kapuni Green Hydrogen Project project should be rejected on the grounds that its primary purpose is the production of urea that will worsen outcomes nationally for the climate; environment; coastal and freshwater quality; air quality; indigenous biodiversity; and the wellbeing of current and future generations. And that it would also undermine New Zealand\u2019s efforts to mitigate climate change and transition more quickly to a low-emissions economy.<\/p>\n\n

03 December 2021<\/a> – The project is given the green light<\/p>\n\n

April 2022 – Te Korowai o Ng\u0101ruahine Trust filed notice to appeal the decision of the panel to grant resource consent to the project. Greenpeace filed to be party to the appeal arguing that the panel failed in law to take environmental impacts of urea use into consideration, and by not making the project conditional on the transition to hydrogen production for transport. <\/p>\n\n

31 October 2022 – The High Court dismissed the appeal<\/p>\n\n

11 November 2022<\/a> – Greenpeace, backed by hap\u016b of Ng\u0101ruahine in South Taranaki<\/a>, filed a notice of Appeal against the approval of Hiringa\u2019s hydrogen-to-urea consent, arguing that the High Court erred in failing to find that the Consenting Panel\u2019s decision to place no conditions on whether, when, and how the project transitioned from fertiliser feedstock production to hydrogen fuel production, was a breach of the Covid-19 Recovery Fast-Track Consenting Act.23 May 2023<\/a> – Greenpeace is in the Court of Appeal with parties to the action: hap\u016b of \u014ckahu-Inu\u0101wai me \u0113tehi atu hap\u016b, Ng\u0101ti T\u016b, Ng\u0101ti Tam\u0101huroa-Titahi, Ng\u0101ti Haua and Kanihi Umutahi me \u0113tehi atu hap\u016b.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
