Ammonia-Powered Zero-Carbon Versatile-Energy Supply System Ammonia-Powered Zero-Carbon Versatile-Energy Supply System

The system is an ammonia-powered, zero‑carbon versatile-energy supply station prototype that converts green ammonia into high‑purity hydrogen and fuel‑cell electricity, then intelligently distributes energy to serve buildings and transport. It provides a local, flexible and resilient clean-energy hub that can operate grid‑connected or off‑grid, supporting Hong Kong’s decarbonisation and energy transition.

 

Special features & advantages:

  • Zero‑carbon operation using green ammonia as the sole fuel.
  • On-site H2 generation (avoids high‑pressure hydrogen delivery/storage).
  • Multi-outlet supply: electricity and hydrogen for diverse end uses.
  • Intelligent sensing, control and safety monitoring; fast response to demand changes.
  • Modular, scalable architecture; compatible with renewables and microgrids.

 

Potential application areas:

  • EV charging sites needing dispatchable clean power.
  • Hydrogen supply for appliances, fleets, or pilot refuelling points.
  • Backup power for critical facilities (e.g., telecom, clinics, data/IT rooms).
  • Remote/off‑grid or islanded communities and construction sites.
  • Distributed renewable microgrids (solar/wind + ammonia storage).
