Science Magazine: Ammonia—a renewable fuel made from sun, air, and water—could power the globe without carbon

Scientists are exploring the potential of using liquid ammonia, made with renewable energy sources, as a sustainable way to store and transport energy. Currently, creating ammonia involves the use of natural gas or coal, which generates significant greenhouse gas emissions. However, scientists are developing ways to use renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, to create ammonia sustainably. The industry can move towards knitted components of air and water into ammonia, with the help of electrochemical cells, which would avoid generating heat and pressure. Successful implementation of this technology could revolutionize sustainable energy without carbon.
