On November 21, #NYK and JERA Co., Inc. signed a MoU to study the transportation of fuel #ammonia. The study will include examining the transport of fuel ammonia to the Hekinan Thermal Power Plant, where JERA aims to begin using fuel ammonia in commercial operations in the late 2020s.
In order to procure fuel ammonia in large volume for power generation at a lower cost, it is necessary to increase the size of ships for transportation. The MoU provides for the two companies to jointly study the development of enlarged fuel ammonia carriers and the establishment of a safe transportation system. Specifically, the MoU stipulates that the following items will be studied:
・Development of fuel ammonia carriers suitable for domestic thermal power plants and receiving terminals
・Establishment of a system for transporting and receiving fuel ammonia
・Implementation and operation of ammonia-fueled propulsion systems for vessels
・Working with related parties to formulate rules for the reception of fuel ammonia
