Hydro-Jen,
100% will not be 100%.
Just like anything else with an output, it won't be screaming at 500kd/d because they cap it to a level where it can produce that 24/7/365 for years.
My EV car shows a range of 300 miles, but I know for a fact there is 10% more that the instruments don't show, I can run it past zero on the dashboard, there's YouTube videos of people proving this.
My drill can run at 10,000rpm all day without overheating, that's the speed that the drill manufacturer allows, so that the drill lasts for many years. The motor in the drill is rated to 12,000rpm, but manufacturers are never going to allow owners to run it at that speed and wear it out in 6 months then get another one under warranty.
AFC Energy allowance the Ammonia Cracker to produce 500kg/d but it can likely produce 550 or even 600 if they derestricted it. They want owners to be able to run it 100% at the level they have set, they know that doing that will not give them warranty issues.
As for client usage, there will be companies with big needs that can run out Ammonia Cracker 24/7/365 and it will only provide a fraction of what they currently buy or produce.
