From Hellenic Shipping News, February 3:
At the first symposium of the Green Ammonia Consortium (GAC)* on January 22, NYK presented its approach of using ammonia as marine fuel for zero-emission ships.Here's NYK's Staying ahead 2022

NYK is participating in the consortium to consider not only the maritime transport of ammonia as a power generation fuel used by electric power companies but also the use of ammonia as marine fuel, one of the solutions for decarbonization.
At the symposium, lectures were segmented into four fields in which CO2-free ammonia** could be used — production, technology, demand, and regulation. NYK, on the demand side, made a presentation introducing ammonia as marine fuel from both the technical and operational side....MORE
