Amogy, a leader in ammonia-to-power solutions, has partnered with Singapore’s Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) to develop and deploy ammonia-based technologies. This collaboration, formalised through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), aims to support Singapore’s Green Plan 2030 and the National Hydrogen Strategy by piloting ammonia-to-power systems on Jurong Island.
The partnership will see A*STAR providing expertise in safety, standards, and sustainability, whilst Amogy will leverage its proprietary technology to convert ammonia into hydrogen for electricity generation. This initiative is expected to offer a low to zero-carbon alternative to fossil fuels, particularly benefiting energy-intensive sectors.
Key aspects of the collaboration include the demonstration of ammonia-to-power systems, joint research and development on advanced ammonia-cracking catalyst technologies, and the development of digital tools and workforce training for system integration. A significant focus will be on decarbonising Singapore’s rapidly growing data centre industry, which faces substantial clean energy challenges.
Seonghoon Woo, CEO of Amogy, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “This collaboration marks an important step toward advancing decarbonisation in critical sectors such as data centres and heavy industry.” Lim Keng Hui of A*STAR added, “By advancing technologies for low or zero-carbon ammonia for power generation, we can help pave the way to decarbonise hard-to-abate industries.”
This collaboration highlights Singapore’s commitment to clean energy innovation and its role as a regional hub for low-carbon technologies.
