Empowering Pohang: Ammonia-to-Power Project Sets the Stage for Clean Energy Revolution
Key Ideas
- Amogy, GS E&C, HD Hyundai Infracore, and Pohang-si are collaborating on a 1 MW pilot power generation system using ammonia as a carbon-free fuel, aiming to scale up to 40 MW by 2028-2029.
- The partnership integrates Amogy's ammonia cracking technology with HDI's hydrogen engine, with support from GS E&C for infrastructure and operations, positioning Pohang-si as a hub for clean energy innovation.
- This project aligns with South Korea's clean energy policies and Pohang-si's ambitions, aiming to drive innovation in the hydrogen industry and establish the city as a model for sustainable power solutions.
- The initiative not only advances ammonia-to-power technology but also contributes to the broader goal of reducing environmental impact, promoting energy-resilient cities and national energy transformation.
Amogy, in collaboration with GS Engineering & Construction (GS E&C), HD Hyundai Infracore (HDI), and Pohang-si in South Korea, announced plans to deploy an ammonia-powered distributed power generation system. The project aims to showcase ammonia as a carbon-free fuel and position Pohang-si as a regional hub for clean energy innovation. The partners will co-develop a 1 MW pilot system by 2026, with intentions to scale up to 40 MW for commercial operations. This system will combine Amogy's ammonia cracking technology with HDI's hydrogen engine, supported by GS E&C's expertise. The initiative supports South Korea's clean energy policies and Pohang-si's ambitions to drive innovation in the hydrogen industry. It also aligns with the Distributed Energy Act by accelerating hydrogen and ammonia-based power generation, promoting sustainable power solutions. This collaboration not only advances clean energy technology but also emphasizes the importance of cross-sector collaboration and commitment to environmental sustainability, aiming to establish a replicable model for energy-resilient cities.
