🏗️ Ammonia use case: carbon capture and storage (CCS) systems Ammonia isn’t just a hydrogen carrier – it also has significant potential in CCS technologies. Research is underway to use ammonia as a solvent in post-combustion capture processes, where it could increase the efficiency of CO2 absorption from industrial emissions. If successful, ammonia could offer a dual benefit: decarbonising heat processes and capturing emissions in industrial sectors. Stay tuned as we track innovations in ammonia-driven CCS solutions. #CarbonCapture #CCS #Ammonia #Decarbonization #NETzero

🚢 Green shipping fuel update: ammonia vs methanol? To meet shipping emissions reductions goals, The International Maritime Organization is turning to green fuels, particularly ammonia and methanol. While methanol is easier to handle in terms of retrofitting existing ships, ammonia offers higher energy density and emits zero carbon when combusted. The challenge lies in safety and the development of ammonia-compatible engines. But with advancements in combustion technologies, ammonia is increasingly becoming the fuel of choice for large-scale shipping. In fact, the IEA forecasts ammonia will provide 45% of shipping fuel demand by 2050 📈 Which green fuel do you think will dominate the maritime sector in the next decade? #GreenShipping #AmmoniaFuel #Methanol #ZeroCarbon

🔋 Solid oxide fuel cells + ammonia → a match for industrial heat? Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are emerging as a promising technology for producing electricity and heat. When paired with ammonia, SOFCs can deliver high-temperature heat (above 800°C) with near-zero emissions, making them an ideal solution for industries like cement, steel, and glass. This technology not only addresses the carbon challenge but also provides a reliable energy source for industries that require continuous high-temperature operations. We here at NET are excited about this potential. #SOFC #IndustrialHeat #Ammonia #Decarbonization #NETzero

🔋 Ammonia fuel cells: what’s next for power generation? Fuel cells powered by ammonia could offer a zero-carbon solution for distributed power generation. Ammonia fuel cells operate by directly converting chemical energy into electricity without combustion, producing nitrogen and water as byproducts. The way we see it, this could revolutionize off-grid power systems and backup energy solutions for industries – particularly in remote areas with limited access to clean power sources. #AmmoniaFuelCells #DistributedEnergy #ZeroCarbon #PowerGeneration #NETzero

🌍 The geopolitical implications of ammonia for hydrogen storage As countries race to build green hydrogen economies, ammonia is emerging as a key player in energy security. With its ability to be stored and transported at lower costs compared to hydrogen, ammonia is enabling countries to decouple from expensive energy imports and create localized, renewable energy supply chains. This shift is ultimately about energy independence. Ammonia’s potential to stabilize energy markets is why it's on the radar for countries like Japan, Germany, and Australia. How do you see ammonia shaping the future of global energy geopolitics? #EnergySecurity #Ammonia #GreenHydrogen #NETzero

Electrification alone won’t solve the energy transition. For industries that rely on high-temperature heat — like steel, cement, and chemicals — electrification isn’t enough.

Economics of ammonia cracking – challenges and breakthroughs Ammonia cracking technology is advancing, but challenges remain. Operating at temperatures over 700°C and requiring high-performance catalysts, the energy and cost requirements have historically been prohibitive for large-scale implementation. But recent innovations in electrochemical cracking are starting to change the game, lowering both energy use and cost. Electrochemical cracking operates at lower temperatures, drastically reducing the overall energy footprint — making it more feasible to scale up. #AmmoniaCracking #Electrochemistry #GreenHydrogen #EnergyInnovation

Ammonia vs. hydrogen — the energy density debate continues 💡 One of the most important metrics when comparing green fuels is energy density. Hydrogen has a higher gravimetric energy density (about 120 MJ/kg) than ammonia (18.6 MJ/kg). However, volumetrically, ammonia outperforms hydrogen under standard conditions. We believe that ammonia’s higher volumetric density makes it a more practical option for long-distance energy transport, particularly in scenarios where space is limited. At NET, we'll be keeping a close eye on developments to see where the future of energy density optimisation lies. #EnergyDensity #Ammonia #Hydrogen #GreenFuels

🔬 Innovation spotlight: Green ammonia and its role in thermal energy storage While ammonia is known for its potential in hydrogen transport and industrial applications, its role in thermal energy storage is often overlooked. Emerging research suggests that ammonia could be used as a high-density thermal energy storage medium, particularly for seasonal storage in industrial processes. This opens up new possibilities for decarbonising industries like glass and cement production, where continuous high-temperature heat is needed year-round. 💡 Stay tuned for more insights on the intersection of green ammonia and thermal energy storage. #ThermalEnergyStorage #Ammonia #Decarbonisation #GreenFuels #NETzero
