The new ammonia gas turbine combines Baker Hughes' compact turbine technology with PSM's ammonia combustion system, a US-based subsidiary of Hanwha.

Korean shipbuilder aims to develop world’s 1st ammonia-powered ships by 2028 Hanwha Group has partnered with Baker Hughes, a global energy technology company, to co-develop turbines fueled by ammonia as the Korean conglomerate aims to produce the world’s first ships using the fuel by 2028.

Hanwha Power Systems and Hanwha Ocean have signed a joint development and collaboration agreement with Baker Hughes to design

Ammonia-fueling is widely seen as key to shipping’s decarbonization. And while ammonia fueled four stroke engines will soon be a reality, ammonia gas turbines could be in the not too distant future.

Hanwha Group declared its vision for the world's first fossil fuel-free ship at the Davos Forum held in Switzerland in January last year. Hanwha Group plans to complete the development of liquefied natural gas carriers and container ships using the ammonia gas turbine propulsion system by 2028.

With the goal of completely carbon-free operation of ships, Hanwha Power Systems and Hanwha Ocean have signed a joint development and collaboration agreement with Baker Hughes, a global energy technology company,
