The CAMPFIRE consortium is exploring the feasibility of ammonia-powered cruise liners on the Baltic Sea. Project partners Rostock Port, Yara, DNV and Carnival Maritime discussed progress to date at a recent Maritime Ammonia Insights webinar, including promising logistics, infrastructure & safety findings.
We explore the GreenBalticCruising project, investigating the potential of a cruise ship route across the Baltic Sea, powered by ammonia fuel.
ADNOC, Currenta GmbH and the North Rhine-Westphalia state government will cooperate on the production, transportation to Germany and subsequent application of low-carbon ammonia fuel. Industrial-scale testing of ammonia fuel for power generation will take place at one of Currenta’s chemical manufacturing sites in the region.
In cracking technology updates this week:
RWE and VTG will jointly develop a rail distribution network for ammonia imports arriving at RWE’s under-development Brunsbüttel terminal. Ammonia will be transported by rail wagon from RWE’s under-development Brunsbüttel terminal to customers in Germany and neighboring countries.
ATCO Australia’s ScaleH2 ammonia export project in NSW will receive funding from both the Australian and German governments. Feasibility work will begin on the 800,000 tonnes-per-year ammonia plant, also being developed by NSW Powerfuels. The announcement comes as the two-year HySupply project released its final report, and a new government-level MoU was signed to develop an export supply chain from Australia to Rotterdam.
