  1. Among the upcoming #NYSERDA solicitations is $8MM for product development, pilots and demonstrations for low-carbon hydrogen, ammonia, and other fuels.

    NYSERDA wants to reduce emissions or make backup power in NY.

  2. 👍Amogy & 2G demonstrate 360kWe ICE reciprocating engine genset powered by hydrogen-rich reformate from #amogyinc ammonia reformer.
    👎No data showing reformer performance, max genset power output, electrical efficiency, NOx emissions…

  6. Jera agreed to book two gas carriers from Mitsui OSK Lines that will enable Japan's largest power producer to transport low-carbon ammonia from the U.S. and build up a supply chain for the alternative fuel. japantimes.co.jp/business/2026 #business #companies #jera #energy #ammonia #carbon #emissions

  8. #Formula1 is heading in the opposite direction to the world.
    That seems sub-optimal.
    #FormulaE is going the right way.
    Now if #F1 was reducing the #Carbon content of its fuel, that could be interesting.
    But high pressure or liquid #Hydrogen for combustion, or #Ammonia, or #Hydrazine or even high test #peroxide are not nice for spectators, or for drivers and marshals near a crash.

    Difficult.

  10. Oh boy. Plastics? Well, we need less of those anyways (and maybe actually recycle them?). Pharmaceuticals? Yeah, that's a BIG problem! Maybe manufacture them in smaller factories locally. As for fertilizer? Let's see... #Urea, #nitrogen and #ammonia -- all can come from urine! And sulphur? Grow more garlic and onions rather than use oil production byproducts. WTF!

    "Around 30% of fertilizer products go through the Strait of Hormuz. Quatar is the world’s biggest producer of urea, a key input to fertiliser manufacture. The region also produces around 35% of the urea and 23% of the ammonia, another feedstock for nitrogenous fertiliser, which is exported globally. Sulphur, another component of fertiliser manufacture, is also produced in the region as a by-product of oil production."

  12. India PM #narendramodi on vist to EU countries including #Netherland brought focus on #GreenAmmonia. #India's green ammonia export ambition face hurdles as #EU_Commission strict rules don't recognize India's #Green #Ammonia as 'green'. But India and a few EU nations like Netherland, Austria, Germany, France, others demand to make its stringent rules related to Renewable Fuels of Non-Biological Origin ( #RFNBO ) a bit flexible so that Indian companies can access the #EU market with confidence.

  15. Ammonia is evolving into a clean energy contender. On Innovate & React, Kevin Rouwenhorst and I explore the low-emission ammonia ecosystem. We discuss how over 90% of conventional ammonia CO2 emissions actually come from upstream hydrogen production, the engineering challenge of flexible renewable plants, and its future as a maritime fuel. 
    What is the biggest bottleneck for scaling green ammonia?

  17. Iran war fertilizer squeeze could spell trouble for next year’s grain harvests

    PARIS/SINGAPORE (Reuters) – Farmers around the world are facing the second surge in fertilizer prices in four years…

  18. Fixing Nitrogen for #fertiliser - #Ammonia production - is rather important. Suddenly 30% of the world's supply is blocked.

    The FT comments are a rich seam of ignorance and stupidity.
    Why electrolysing water is claimed to make an algal bloom seems entirely without sense.

    And if water is short, and solar only works in daytime, floating panels on the water, and hydrogenerate at night.
    A battery.

  20. I have some concerns about the production of ammonia, especially if it depends on energy from fossil fuels, where they are getting their hydrogen from, and the impact of fuel leaks, but hopefully it's better than what shipping uses currently.

  22. @urlyman Thorium Molten Salt Reactors, like China is having continued success with, provides high industrial level heat that's conducive to EV production. #TMSR also lends itself to #desalination, #SodiumIon batteries, #hydrogen and #ammonia production, medical isotopes, and even localized air conditioning because of high heat production in #MSR.

    China's #BeltAndRoadInitiative is far more sustainable than most of the West's profit mongering.

  26. Given sufficient electricity, we can make #Hydrogen in quantity without reforming Methane. The #Oxygen is a probably useful byproduct.
    Given heat, pressure, and a catalyst, we can combine it with atmospheric #Nitrogen to make #Ammonia, a direct fertiliser, and starting point for Nitric acid and then #Nitrates. Among #AmmoniumNitrate 's uses is fertiliser for growng food.

    I think we might build an Ammonia plant next to a #fission boiler, and use #heat as well as perhaps #electricity from it.
