Powering the Seas Together

In February 2025, Baker Hughes and Hanwha agreed to jointly develop a new small-size (~16 MW power range), 100% ammonia-capable turbine for maritime propulsion applications, to be deployed onboard Hanwha Ocean’s LNG carriers and container ships by 2028. A full gas turbine factory engine test with 100% ammonia is planned to be completed by the end of 2027. The combustion system itself is being developed by Power Systems Mfg., LLC (PSM), and will enable the turbine to be both fully decarbonized and “fuel-flexible” – 100% ammonia combustion to 100% natural gas combustion, and any variable blend in between while meeting…

Innovative Integration of Ammonia Cracking and Power Generation: Hanwha Impact’s H2ACT-HRSG Project

Tuan Hoang

The Hanwha Impact H2ACT-HRSG project introduces a novel and highly efficient flow-scheme that integrates ammonia cracking with heat recovery steam generation (HRSG), tailored for small-to-medium scale clean power applications. Developed in collaboration with KBR, this configuration leverages high-grade heat from gas turbine exhaust and duct firing to drive a series of adiabatic reactors, enabling efficient hydrogen production from ammonia while simultaneously generating steam for power. This innovative integration—termed H2ACT-HRSG—offers performance advantages over conventional stand-alone ammonia cracking systems in combined cycle power generation settings. Key benefits include enhanced hydrogen yield, improved net power generation, and reduced specific ammonia consumption, all contributing…

Hanwha, INEOS to explore mega-ammonia project in the USA

Julian Atchison June 11, 2024

The pair will explore a million-ton-per-year ammonia production plant at an undisclosed US location, based on CCS hydrogen production. The plant will be a “potentially important contributor” to INEOS Nitriles’ emission reduction targets, as ammonia is a key feedstock for acrylonitrile manufacturing.
