The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies – Fueling the Future

The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies explores the potential of e-ammonia as a fuel for marine transport. This report provides an in-depth techno-economic evaluation of producing e-ammonia for marine applications, highlighting its feasibility in reducing carbon emissions within the maritime industry. E-ammonia, an emerging clean fuel alternative, could play a pivotal role in decarbonizing global shipping, which remains a high-emission sector. Key factors considered include production costs, energy requirements, and potential market adaptations necessary to support large-scale adoption. The study also addresses current technological limitations and regulatory challenges that must be overcome to establish e-ammonia as a viable marine fuel. Through economic analysis and market insights, the Oxford Institute positions e-ammonia as a promising solution, aligned with environmental regulations and sustainability goals.
