Federal Funding: A Vote of Confidence for the First Operational, Containerized Green Ammonia System in the World.

October 10, 2023 (Source) — FuelPositive Corporation (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF) (the “Company” or “FuelPositive”) announces that it will receive a funding grant of up to $1.9 million through the Research and Innovation Stream of the Agriculture Clean Technology (ACT) Program, delivered by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada (AAFC).

AAFC has made this significant commitment to FuelPositive’s “Green NH3 Demonstration Phase Project” in support of the commercialization of the FP300 Green Ammonia system.

The funding provided through the ACT Program will help the Company gather the information needed to continue to adapt its technology to the commercial needs of farmers. The Green Ammonia Demonstration Phase consists of building and testing three Green Ammonia demonstration systems. Each system represents an improvement to the intellectual property and technological advancemen over the previous system, bringing the Company closer to achieving its efficient and sustainable, large-scale production objectives.

Ammonia is essential for global food security. Today, approximately 80% of the ammonia produced goes towards the world’s fertilizer needs.1 While ammonia is vital to feeding the world’s growing population, the current ammonia industry, which primarily produces grey ammonia, is highly carbon-intensive. As the world strives to achieve global food security utilizing grey ammonia fertilizers, it simultaneously pollutes the environment needed to grow food. This dilemma, in addition to unpredictable pricing and supply uncertainty, has frustrated and confounded farmers and governments alike.

Until now, grey ammonia production was exclusively produced with fossil fuels. As a result, for every tonne of grey ammonia produced, 1.8 to 2.7 tonnes of harmful greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are released into the atmosphere.2 Grey ammonia is then transported, often acrss continents, oceans, countries and cities, and finally to a distributor, before finding its way to each customer’s location. This current distribution process adds additional cost and substantial GHG emissions to an already carbon-intensive grey ammonia production process.

FuelPositive’s decentralized Green Ammonia production takes fossil fuels out of the equation. FuelPositive’s Green Ammonia system consists of a nitrogen generator to produce nitrogen from the air, an electrolyzer to produce hydrogen and oxygen from water and a patent-pending Green Ammonia synthesis converter that operates with sustainable sources of electricity, eliminating the need for fossil fuels.

About FuelPositive

FuelPositive is a Canadian technology company committed to providing commercially viable and sustainable, “cradle to cradle” clean technology solutions, including an on-farm/onsite, containerized Green Ammonia (NH3) production system that eliminates carbon emissions from the production of Green Ammonia.

By focusing on technologies that are clean, sustainable, economically advantageous and realizable, the Company aims to help mitigate climate change, addressing unsustainable agricultural practices through innovative technology and practical solutions that can be implemented now. The FuelPositive on-farm/onsite, containerized Green Ammonia production system is designed to produce pure, anhydrous ammonia for multiple applications, including fertilizer for farming, fuel for grain drying and internal combustion engines, a practical alternative for fuel cells and a solution for grid storage. Green Ammonia is also considere a key enabler of the hydrogen economy.

FuelPositive systems are designed to provide for Green Ammonia production on-farm/onsite, where and when needed. This eliminates wildly fluctuating supply chains and offers end-users clean fertilizer, energy and Green Ammonia supply security while eliminating carbon emissions from the production process. The first customers will be farmers. Farmers use 80% of the traditional grey ammonia produced today as fertilizer.
