Here, we review recent progress and discuss challenges for the key steps of energy storage and utilization via ammonia (including hydrogen production, ammonia synthesis and ammonia utilization). . 2 to TRL 3) the ammonia-based energy storage technology (NH3-BEST) concept. The concept is designed to enable electricity-generating unit (EGU) accommodation of power demand fluctuations while steadily operating within an optimal-performance baseline power output range, ensuring maximum EGU. . Mitsui & Co. and JERA announced that they have been awarded CfD funds by the Japanese government to support the import of CCS-based ammonia from the Blue Point project in Louisiana, USA. By 2030 (2029 in JERA's case), full supply chains will be established to import the ammonia into Japan, for use. . Ammonia is a premium energy carrier with high content of hydrogen.
