Yanmar Holdings Co., Ltd. (Yanmar) and Amogy, a provider of mature, scalable, and efficient ammonia-to-power solutions, have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to integrate Amogy’s advanced ammonia-cracking technology into Yanmar’s hydrogen internal combustion engine (H2ICE).
This collaboration seeks to pioneer a solution for decarbonising marine power generation.
The partnership will focus on combining Amogy’s technology with Yanmar’s H2ICE to provide low-cost hydrogen fuel. Amogy’s ammonia-cracking technology uses state-of-the-art catalyst materials to break down ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen at lower reaction temperatures with high durability, minimising heating and maintenance requirements.
This integration promises a comprehensive clean energy solution for decarbonising marine power generation.
Furthermore, building on this joint research, both companies will explore the potential for collaboration in developing maritime hydrogen fuel cell systems.
