Amogy’s mission is to build technology that unlocks ammonia’s potential as a clean energy source, accelerating the global journey to Net Zero and sustaining future generations. Founded in 2020 by four MIT PhD alumni, Amogy aims to enable the decarbonization of the hard-to-abate sectors, such as shipping, power generation, and heavy-duty transportation, with its ammonia-based, emission-free, high energy-density power solution.
Amogy’s proprietary technology converts ammonia into a clean energy source with zero carbon emissions at the point of use. Its unique catalyst cracks ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen for direct integration into a fuel cell. This scalable and modular solution, referred to as a powerpack, leverages the superior physical characteristics of liquid ammonia with the performance advantages of hydrogen.
To date, Amogy’s ammonia-to-power system has been demonstrated with success in a 5kW drone, 100 kW tractor, and 300 kW semi-truck, and the Amogy team is currently retrofitting a 1MW tugboat, the NH3 Kraken, which will be the world’s-first ammonia-powered vessel.
As the Amogy team retrofits the tugboat, the company is simultaneously renovating a manufacturing facility in Houston. Projected to be complete in early 2024, Amogy will then launch its commercialization efforts by initiating the production of its powerpack. The company has already started taking preorders from a select group of customers.
Headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, Amogy has expanded its operations to Houston, Texas, Norway, and Singapore. The company’s investors include Amazon’s Climate Pledge Fund, AP Ventures, SK Innovation, Aramco Ventures and Mitsubishi Corporation. More info www.amogy.co.
