Amogy and Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) have formalised a multi-year contract manufacturing agreement covering the production of Amogy’s ammonia-to-power systems. Announced on 12 November 2025 in New York and Geoje, the arrangement includes SHI’s plan to set up a dedicated facility in South Korea for system manufacturing and testing. Initial units will be produced for Amogy’s distributed clean-power pilot project in Pohang in 2026, where the technology’s maturity and economic feasibility will be demonstrated.

The agreement builds on the two companies’ existing collaboration, which began with SHI’s strategic investment in Amogy in December 2024. Under the expanded partnership, both organisations will continue to refine ammonia-to-power modules for land-based and maritime applications. SHI intends to establish testing methods and standards, develop operational protocols, and build equipment, process-management systems and raw-material supply chains to support production. SHI also plans to expand its ammonia demonstration facility at the Geoje Shipyard by the end of 2025 for manufacturing and testing activities.

Amogy’s technology is based on catalyst-driven cracking of ammonia to produce hydrogen on site, supplying either a fuel cell or an engine for zero-carbon power generation. The modular architecture is designed to support applications across distributed and maritime power uses. Amogy CEO Seonghoon Woo said the agreement will help ensure system quality and support commercial deployment. Lee Ho-gi, Managing Director of SHI’s Eco-friendly Research Center, stated that the company aims to continue long-term cooperation with Amogy as the technology scales.
