Amogy's proprietary ammonia-to-power platform relies on unique ammonia cracking technology, facilitating the extraction of hydrogen onboard for fuel in a hydrogen engine. Amogy's platform was successfully demonstrated in several industrial applications. The Amogy team is currently scaling the technology for use in maritime vessels, with plans for a tank barge and tugboat operations.\n \n \n Under this contract, Amogy agrees to purchase an initial order of three, 200kW FCwave\n \n TM\n \n engines and Ballard will support integration of the fuel cell engines with Amogy's proprietary ammonia reforming system. Ballard will deliver the initial FCwave engines to Amogy in 2023 for maritime deployment. A follow-on order for an additional seven FCwave\n \n TM\n \n engines is expected upon successful completion of the initial projects\n \n \n \"This contract and collaboration opportunity with Ballard is a significant and valuable step as Amogy expands its efforts in the maritime sector,\" said\n \n Seonghoon Woo\n \n , Chief Executive Officer at Amogy. \"With access to their leading fuel cell technology and team of experts, together we can   expedite commercialization of scalable, ammonia-to-power solutions for the maritime industry and support global sustainability goals.\"\n \n \n The International Maritime Organizatio...
