Keynote Speech: Implementation of Ammonia Energy Value Chain

Toward low carbon society, it is essential to develop and utilize renewable energies globally. For this challenge, hydrogen energy carriers will take an important role to bridge renewable resources and energy market. Among carriers, ammonia is the most economical and viable option because it has the largest hydrogen content and can be directly combusted without CO₂ emissions.

Technologies to use ammonia in power generation and industrial markets have been developed in the SIP Energy Carriers in Japan, and The Green Ammonia Consortium established April 2019 is conducting feasibility studies of Green and Blue ammonia and discussing implementation plans for a C-free ammonia value chain.
