Meet Air Liquide, which announced the successful start-up of its first industrial-scale ammonia cracking pilot unit at the Port of Antwerp-Bruges in Belgium. We will also explore a series of ISO standards under development to help regulate the ammonia energy supply chain.
India has joined Japan, Korea and the EU in setting an emissions threshold for renewable ammonia certification. The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy will issue methodologies for measurement, reporting, monitoring, on-site verification, and certification.
Under a new agreement, ACWA, EnBW, Rostock Port and VNG will establish a new renewable ammonia and hydrogen corridor between Saudi Arabia and Germany. The corridor will see ACWA’s renewable ammonia from Yanbu being exported to Germany via the Port of Rostock.
GreenH has taken a final investment decision on its Slagen renewable ammonia project, plus two other electrolytic hydrogen projects on Norway’s coast. Nel ASA has been chosen to supply electrolyser technologies for Slagen and a series of electrolytic hydrogen projects in Norway, and will add a 1 GW production line for its new “Next Generation Pressurized Alkaline system” at its factory in Herøya.
The pair aim to complete an ammonia-fueled engine platform design capable of scaled production, while demonstrating that “an internal combustion engine can be run on liquid ammonia with minimal changes necessary”.
Beginning in Rotterdam, the newly-opened route visits Oslo, Brevik, and Bremerhaven to deliver fertilizer weekly, and will be serviced by the ammonia-powered Yara Eyde from later this year.
Meet EXMAR and Lloyd’s Register, two marine first-movers preparing for the use of ammonia as a marine fuel. Learn about EXMAR’s ammonia-fueled gas carriers due for delivery this year, and a partnership with Lloyd’s Register to develop guidelines for the safe use of ammonia cargo as fuel.
