Ammonia energy
Ammonia has no sulfur oxide (SOx) or particulate matter emissions, and is a carbon-free fuel (when the whole supply chain is sourced from renewables). It reduces tank-to-propeller GHG emissions by more than 80% in dual-fuel marine engines.
Due to the practical challenges of power density and load response capability, we have demonstrated that an internal combustion engine using an ammonia diesel (ICE-CI) is the best initial solution, followed by an internal combustion engine using an ammonia hydrogen mixture (ICE-SI). In the long term, using a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) is potentially the most efficient solution.
An additional challenge to overcome is expanding the infrastructure of cargo ships so that more cargo space is dedicated to fuel. As expert naval architects, C-Job are ideally qualified to provide the most efficient ammonia vessel designs.

We partner with
Ammonia 2-4 Project
ENGIMMONIA
A four-year EU-funded program to accelerate the introduction of alternative fuels, with a particular focus on ammonia, in combination with various energy saving technologies, for which C-Job has provided concept designs.
Ammonia Energy Association
We have been a member of this international industry association for many years. It promotes the adoption and use of ammonia in a sustainable energy economy, and C-Job supports the association’s plans to realize a safe and efficient ammonia-fueled vessel.
AmmoniaDrive
Which aims to create a single-fuel, high-efficiency ammonia power plant that fits onboard a ship and has no pollutant emissions anywhere in the energy chain. The concept combines an ammonia-fueled SOFC and an ammonia-hydrogen fueled ICE. As an industry representative, C-Job is assisting with a feasibility study and concept designs.
