Derivaat NH3: integrated ammonia production in Estonia

Geofrey Njovu October 22, 2025

Derivaat NH3 plans to produce hydrogen and ammonia in Estonia via two projects. The first will be electrolysis-based, and powered by an under construction biogas power plant. Part of the produced ammonia will be used to power a rail ferry connecting Finland with Baltic countries using existing railway infrastructure.

Powering the Seas Together

Luca Pilenga Semi Kim Jeff Benoit

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…

ARISE Project Status

Laurent Ruhlman

Ammonia/Sea water interaction still contains critical knowledge gaps that prevent us using consistently existing consequence modelling tools. ARISE project is specially designed to improve this situation. Despite important logistic and scientific challenges, ARISE project is progressing well and should reach final deliverable Q2 next year.
