The maritime shipping industry is at a pivotal point, facing increasing pressure to reduce its carbon footprint and transition to sustainable energy sources. Ammonia, specifically in the form of NH₃, is emerging as a highly feasible fuel option for maritime shipping, largely due to its capacity to utilize green hydrogen. As market analysts delve deeper into the potential of ammonia, several factors underscore its viability and the transformative impact it could have on the industry.

Sungrow Hydrogen has recently secured the bid for the China Energy Engineering Corporation (CEEC) Songyuan Hydrogen Energy Industrial Park project in Jilin, China. This project, recognized as the world’s largest integrated green hydrogen, ammonia, and methanol production facility, represents a significant milestone in the industry. Sungrow Hydrogen’s 1000Nm³/h ALK hydrogen production system will be a key component of this groundbreaking venture. The CEEC Songyuan Hydrogen Energy Industrial Park project is among the initial batch of “Green and Low-carbon Advanced Technology Demonstration Projects” endorsed by the China National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC).
