Beyond Hydrogen: Striving for a Low Carbon Future through Ammonia and E-Methane
Highlighting IHI advances in the production and use of Ammonia as a fuel. We will highlight ammonia burned in coal plants, gas turbines and tug boats. We will also talk about the advances in the use of E-methane in Japan. The transition to a low carbon future is a paramount global challenge, requiring innovative solutions that transcend geographical boundaries. IHI has made promising strides in ammonia production technologies, usage technologies, and engineering for a sustainable energy transformation. The presentation explains the journey from Japan's pioneering role in utilizing ammonia as an energy carrier, including its use as a co-firing fuel in a pulverized coal power plant, to North America's adaptation and expansion of these advancements. Amid the drive to curb carbon emissions, this presentation underscores the significance of global knowledge sharing in pursuit of cutting-edge ammonia-based solutions.
