Monash team proposes roadmap to renewable ammonia economy; 3 generations of technology

Green Car Congress

Generation 3 avoids the need for the Haber-Bosch process entirely by direct electrochemical conversion of N 2 to NH 3. C and pressures above 200 bar to be facile, and therefore the capital cost of plant and equipment is substantial. Modern H-B plants produce ammonia at an energy cost of at least 8 MWh tonne -1.

Energy storage: the key to a decarbonised future

Setec Powerr

Energy storage with hydrogen, which is still emerging, would involve its conversion from electricity via electrolysis for storage in tanks. From there it can later undergo either re-electrification or supply to emerging applications such as transport, industry or residential as a supplement or replacement to gas.
