Ammonia’s Big Bang: GE Vernova and Japan’s IHI Aim to Unleash Ammonia Value Chain

Gregor Macdonald
January 24, 2024

The world needs a breakthrough to lower emissions from heavy industry, and a solution may be brewing in Japan. IHI Corporation, one of the country’s oldest manufacturers, and GE Vernova have teamed up in recent years to work to unlock the secrets of ammonia. Under their latest joint development agreement, signed on Christmas Day 2023, the companies will work for the next two years developing technology to combust ammonia in turbines that normally run on natural gas.

GE Vernova and IHI announce next phase of the technology roadmap aiming to develop a 100% ammonia capable gas turbine combustion system by 2030

January 24, 2024
  • Under a Joint Development Agreement (JDA), GE Vernova and IHI will collaborate to develop a new gas turbine combustor capable to use ammonia for power generation compatible with GE Vernova’s 6F.03, 7F and 9F gas turbines
  • Combustion testing will take place in IHI’s facilities in Japan
  • This agreement is a development on the heels of earlier MOUs between the companies

Tokyo, Japan: January 24th, 2024 – Ammonia, a derivative from hydrogen, which can be carbon-free when combusted in a gas turbine, is expected to play an

Shipping Sunshine: GE and IHI Explore Ways to Transform Ammonia Into a Cleaner Energy Source

Gregor Macdonald
February 23, 2023

Japan presides over a highly developed economy, yet, lacking abundant domestic energy sources, it remains reliant on the costly import of coal, oil, and natural gas in the form of liquefied natural gas. But what if there was a way to import energy that’s a lot cleaner? And not only to Japan but all of Asia?
