Scottish Port of Cromarty Firth, Brunel University of London, and UK environmental and engineering consultancy Ricardo have joined forces to launch a feasibility study that aims to understand how ammonia could support the decarbonization of the maritime sector and a concept for a next-generation ammonia combustion engine.

The feasibility study, Project FASTMOVE, is part of a Department of Transport-funded initiative, UK SHORE, which aims to drive the shift towards a more sustainable maritime sector, while also supporting economic growth across the UK.
