Amogy, a startup founded by MIT alumni, has developed a catalyst that can split ammonia into hydrogen and nitrogen more efficiently, potentially transforming energy systems using existing infrastructure. The company plans to sell catalysts and modular systems to convert ammonia directly to power, bypassing health concerns related to nitrous oxides. Amogy has already created ammonia-powered drones, tractors, trucks, and tugboats, and has partnerships with industry leaders, raising over $300 million. This innovation could lead to a carbon-free and energy-dense fuel solution that could significantly impact the transition to cleaner energy sources.
