AMMDrive™ Power Systems

Amogy AMMDrive is a modular ammonia-to-electrical power system: a catalytic reactor cracks ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen, which then feeds a fuel cell or hydrogen engine for zero-carbon power at the point of use.

Description

AMMDrive™ Power Systems from Amogy convert ammonia into electricity with zero carbon emissions at the point of use. Each system combines an ammonia cracking reactor with a hydrogen-to-power conversion system, and can be applied to maritime, stationary power generation, data centers and heavy industry.

How it works

  • Ammonia is fed into a reactor where a high-efficiency catalyst cracks it into hydrogen and nitrogen, achieving near-complete conversion at low reactor temperatures
  • A purification module removes trace ammonia where applicable
  • The hydrogen is converted to electricity in a fuel cell or hydrogen engine; nitrogen is released to atmosphere

Configurations

  • Fuel cell arrangement – cracked hydrogen and nitrogen are fed directly into an integrated fuel cell; byproduct water is discharged
  • Genset arrangement – the reactor is integrated with commercially available hydrogen internal combustion engines; hydrogen and trace ammonia are combusted to generate electricity

Key features

  • Modular and scalable: multiple units can be combined to meet the required power
  • Suitable for baseload and load-following operation and challenging ambient conditions
  • Developed in cooperation with classification societies, OEMs, regulators and integrators to meet safety and emissions requirements
