Ammonia is considered one of the most promising hydrogen and energy carriers for decarbonizing deep-sea shipping and other remote heavy-duty applications. The AmmoniaDrive power plant concept uniquely combines Solid-Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) and Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) technology to address the issue of how to convert e-ammonia, produced from renewable resources, into useful on-board power safely and effectively, without the need for fossil fuels as combustion promotor. This paper introduces the AmmoniaDrive concept, outlines the challenging combustion properties of ammonia and ammonia-hydrogen mixtures and provides a short review of Compression Ignition ICE research for ammonia-fuelled engines. Three promising combustion concepts are introduced to give direction to further numerical and experimental research. ... Read more
