Abstract

Amogy aims to enable the decarbonization of the hard-to-abate sectors, such as shipping and power generation, with its emission-free ammonia-to-power solution. Amogy has developed a compact, high-efficiency ammonia cracker to crack ammonia into hydrogen, where the produced hydrogen is subsequently used to generate power through a fuel cell. This proprietary design leverages the superior physical characteristics of liquid ammonia with the performance advantages of matured hydrogen fuel cell technology. To date, Amogy’s ammonia-to-power system has been demonstrated with success in a 5 kW drone, 100 kW tractor, and 300 kW semi truck, and the Amogy team is working on retrofitting a 1957 tugboat to be powered by the technology at a 1 MW scale in 2023, which will be the world’s-first ammonia-powered vessel. Headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, Amogy has expanded its operations to Houston, Texas, Norway, and Singapore. Since its inception in November 2020, the company has raised $220M from investors including Amazon’s Climate Pledge Fund, Aramco Ventures, SK Innovation, Korea Zinc, Mitsubishi Corporation and Mitsubishi Heavy industries and more.
