(PVM) IRENA SEES E-AMMONIA AS THE FUTURE IN SHIPPING

The International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) has predicted green hydrogen-powered ‘e-ammonia‘ will supply the “backbone of the decarbonization of the shipping sector.”

Renewable-energy powered green hydrogen will be used to form the e-ammonia ‘powerfuel‘ which will contribute 60% of shipping's mid-century decarbonization effort, under IRENA's pathway to a world that will see global heating this century capped at 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Such a fuel transition will require 866-1,299 GW of global solar generation capacity by 2050, according to IRENA, from a projected global clean energy generation capacity of 2,799 GW.

A Pathway to Decarbonise the Shipping Sector by 2050, a report recently published by the UAE-based international body, notes the crucial role that could be played by Morocco in achieving zero-carbon shipping, given the nation's vast renewable energy potential and strategic location, with access to the Atlantic and Mediterranean sea lanes - pv magazine - link - Max Hall - link - more like this - link
