Amogy and Amun Energy Sign Supply Agreement for 40 MW Ammonia Power Project in Korea

Amogy, a U.S.-based provider of mature, scalable, and efficient ammonia-to-power solutions, and Amun Energy, a joint venture established by GS Engineering & Construction (GS E&C) of South Korea, announced on August 8 that they have signed a supply agreement to support the development of a commercial-scale ammonia-based power generation project in Pohang, South Korea.

Under the agreement, Amogy will supply its ammonia-to-power generation system for the distributed energy project. The initial phase will involve the deployment of a 1 MW pilot system, with plans to scale up the facility's ammonia-based power generation capacity to 40 MW by 2029.

The agreement builds on Amogy and GS E&C's previously announced Pohang pilot initiative and establishes a framework for phased expansion toward commercial operation. The project supports Amun Energy's efforts to accelerate the commercialization of ammonia-based distributed power generation in Korea, while expanding Amogy's portfolio of commercial deployments. Amogy's proprietary ammonia cracking technology converts ammonia into hydrogen, which is then used to generate carbon-free power for stationary and distributed energy applications.

"As power markets look for reliable carbon-free energy solutions that can scale, ammonia is emerging as an increasingly practical option for power generation," said Seonghoon Woo, CEO of Amogy. "Through Amun Energy, we are creating a clear commercial pathway for scaling ammonia-based distributed power generation in Korea."

Ki Tae Kim, CEO of Amun Energy, added, "The deployment roadmap in Pohang creates a strong foundation for long-term commercial adoption of ammonia-based power generation. Amun Energy was established to help bring these projects from demonstration into scalable infrastructure deployment, and this agreement marks an important milestone in that process."

The Pohang project reflects South Korea's continued leadership in advancing the hydrogen and ammonia economy and highlights ammonia's growing role as a scalable, carbon-free fuel for next-generation power infrastructure. Headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, with offices in Houston and Seoul, Amogy develops carbon-free energy solutions for hard-to-abate sectors including power generation, maritime shipping, and heavy industry, and is backed by investors including Amazon's Climate Pledge Fund, SK Innovation, Aramco Ventures, Mitsubishi Corporation, Samsung Heavy Industries, BHP Ventures, and AP Ventures.
