The Berlin Energy Round Table began with a presentation by IKEM Managing Director Judith Schäfer-Gendrisch. As part of CAMPFIRE, IKEM is researching the legal framework for the production of ammonia and its use as an energy source for emission-free shipping. In her presentation, Judith presented the perspective on the fuel of the future and findings…
Jens Wartmann, CAMPFIRE Head of Technology & Strategy, presented his talk at the Hydrogen Solutions Forum at the E‑world on the key role of green ammonia for the ramp-up of a hydrogen economy, including a brilliant contribution from CAMPFIRE partner Friederike Dahlke-Wallat, DST, with regard to ammonia supply by means of inland water shipping. We…
We are very pleased that our CAMPFIRE spokeswoman Angela Kruth was invited to participate in the Blue Innovation Dock Panel “Next-Generation Power-Innovations driving sustainably” of the Boot 2025 in Düsseldorf. Together with Maria Bouillet, Bouillet Energy, Erwan Faoucher, Beneteau Group, Harald Kuhnke, Polucharge, and Christian Schneider, German Motor Yacht Association, she discussed ground-breaking innovations for…
We would like to thank all CAMPFIRE partners and friends of our alliance for the great collaboration and support in 2024. We look forward to an innovative new year 2025 and the next steps together towards an emission-free future!
On November 24, CAMPFIRE presented at the Svenska Cimac Seminar“Ammonia and the maritime green transition”. The lecture entitled “Retrofit of an inland vessel with an ammonia propulsion system”, held by Friederike Dahlke-Wallat (DST), showed the conversion concept for the TMS ODIN. In particular, the concept of the new drive train and the necessary measures to…
Our CAMPFIRE information event at the Rhine ports in Karlsruhe was a successful event with lively participation by stakeholders from business, administration, politics and science. Ammonia as the green energy supply of the future for the Rhine ports and as a central energy vector for the accelerated market ramp-up of green hydrogen — this was…
CAMPFIRE and HiPowAR were presented by Drs Angela Kruth (INP) and Olga Ravkina (IKTS) at the Research and Innovation Working Group Workshop of the German Chemical Industry Association Northeast (VCI Nordost) at YARA Rostock. The meeting focused on the potential uses of ammonia for the energy transition and the decarbonization of the industry, with the…
A very intriguing location for the Ammonia Workshop of Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action, organised by German Energy Agency (dena) at Fabrik 23 GmbH in a proper Berliner Hinterhof. More surprising the title though : „Ammonia as a Hydrogen Transport Vector — Vision Or Fiction“. To all of us who have been…
On 9th September, the „Ammonia Sherpa“ went onto her way to the 8th Rostock Large Engine Symposium. Leaving Greifswald-Wieck in the early morning, she headed via Stralsund to Rostock-Hohe Düne. The core technologies of future ammonia-powered ships could be visited on board: ammonia cracker system by Zentrum für BrennstoffzellenTechnik (ZBT) ammonia-and-hydrogen-operated ICE developed by DEUTZ…
A great project meeting at Fraunhofer IKTS in Hermsdorf of some members of the HiPowAR team, discussing the final reactor concept and timeline until implementation of the containerised reactor module in spring 2025. HiPowAR under the umbrella of the CAMPFIRE alliance is funded by Horizon 2020 FET Proactive — part of the Enhanced European Innovation…
