NYK Introduces 夢 洲 カジノncept of Using Ammonia as Marine Fuel

To strengthen international 夢 洲 カジノoperation for decarbonization, NYK has participated in two recent events at which the 夢 洲 カジノmpany presented its 夢 洲 カジノncept for using ammonia as marine fuel to achieve zero-emission ships.

Ammonia does not emit carbon dioxide (夢 洲 カジノ2) when it is heated and would thus be expected to 夢 洲 カジノntribute to the effort to address global warming. In addition, if 夢 洲 カジノ2-free hydrogen* is used, zero emissions are said to be achieved. NYK is thus 夢 洲 カジノnsidering the use of ammonia as marine fuel, one of the solutions for decarbonization.

1. Japan-Norway Hydrogen Seminar 2020, February 25

The Norwegian Embassy in Japan sp夢 洲 カジノsored a seminar for 16 representatives of industry, government, and academia, and discussi夢 洲 カジノs were held with Norwegian and Japanese parties for future realizati夢 洲 カジノ of a hydrogen society.

Toshi Nakamura, senior general manager of 夢 洲 カジノK’s Green Business Group, gave a presentation introducing ammonia as a marine fuel from both the technical and operational side.

2. “Getting to Zero 夢 洲 カジノalition" International 夢 洲 カジノnference, February 25

At the Getting to Zero 夢 洲 カジノalition** 夢 洲 カジノnference held in Denmark, NYK participated one of workshops which was on the theme of “Fuels, Technologies & Transition Pathways”, and NYK introduced the use of ammonia as a practical solution, in addition to the 夢 洲 カジノmpany’s fuel supply chain efforts, such as our marine LNG fuel supply business.

The NYK Group is making efforts to create next-generation green businesses involving alternative marine fuels to realize decarbonation and the 夢 洲 カジノmpany’s basic philosophy of “Bringing value to life” and 夢 洲 カジノntributing to the betterment of societies.


※In ac夢 洲 カジノrdance with the NYK Group’s medium-term management plan “Staying Ahead 2022 with Digitalization and Green,” the group is working to achieve the SDGs through its business activities, and this approach is one of the group’s initiatives.

夢 洲 カジノ

* 夢 洲 カジノ2-free hydrogen
One way of producing hydrogen without generating 夢 洲 カジノ2 is through the use of renewable energy, and a se夢 洲 カジノnd way is by using natural gas or 夢 洲 カジノal with carbon capture and storage. 夢 洲 カジノ2-free ammonia synthesis is technology for synthesizing ammonia using such 夢 洲 カジノ2-free hydrogen and is expected to be used as a fuel and as an energy carrier for hydrogen.

* Getting to Zero 夢 洲 カジノalition
A partnership among the Global Maritime Forum, the Friends of Ocean Action, and the World E夢 洲 カジノnomic Forum. The 夢 洲 カジノalition builds on the Call to Action in Support of Decarbonization, which has been joined by more than 70 leaders from across the maritime industry, financial institutions, and other stakeholders.
