Canada produces sufficient green electricity in off-peak demand
hours to produce enough carbon-free ammonia (NH3) to replace the
use of fossil fuels for 100% of the passenger and freight aviation
and rail, passenger bus, freight trucking, freight rail and freight
marine shipping in the country, according to a study commissioned
by FuelPositive Corporation (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF)
(“FuelPositive” or the “Company”). If all carbon-free ammonia were
used, the result would be a 15.3% reduction in Canada’s total
greenhouse gas emissions. [Link to study

In early 2021, FuelPositive commissioned emissions
reduction and carbon credit specialist Andre Mech to conduct an
analysis of Canada’s green off-peak electricity capacity and to
determine the fuel needs and the carbon emissions of the Canadian
transportation sector. The intention was to discover whether it
would be possible to replace fossil fuels used for transportation
with carbon-free ammonia (NH3) – and to measure the impact that
would have on the country’s carbon emissions. FuelPositive’s
carbon-free NH3 is produced using only air, water and green
electricity. For the purposes of this study, Mech used 2019 data.
Green electricity was defined as hydroelectric, solar and wind.
The findings of Mech’s analysis were startling.
Canada has enough off-peak green electricity today to provide
non-polluting, carbon-free NH3 fuel to power 63% of all the
passenger cars, light trucks, passenger aviation, buses, light
rail, motorcycles, freight trucking, freight aviation, rail, marine
and other sector vehicles in the country. But even more exciting,
Canada has enough off-peak green electricity to provide carbon-free
NH3 to power 100% of the needs of passenger and freight aviation
and rail, passenger bus, freight trucking, freight rail and freight
marine shipping in Canada – all regulated industries that are
notoriously high greenhouse gas emitters with significant
government mandates to decarbonize.
“Switching from fossil fuels to carbon-free ammonia
offers a viable, economical transition strategy for Canada’s
transportation sector as we adopt new practices to address climate
change,” said Ian Clifford, FuelPositive CEO. “Many people don’t
know it, but planes, trains, ships, trucks and other vehicles can
be converted to run on ammonia – just as easily as they can be
converted from gasoline and diesel to run on propane. The
transportation sector just didn’t see a benefit to switching to
ammonia until now, because the production of traditional ammonia
results in massive carbon emissions. But, when you use our
carbon-free NH3 made from green electricity rather than traditional
ammonia, it means we can move people around and transport goods
with no pollution.”
“The analysis outlines the opportunities and needs
at the provincial and territorial levels,” said study author Andre
Mech. Three provinces – Manitoba, Quebec and Newfoundland &
Labrador – already generate enough renewable electricity to cover
their passenger aviation, passenger rail and freight transportation
fuel requirements using FuelPositive’s carbon-free NH3 system. In a
national strategy, they would be green ammonia suppliers. The
remaining provinces and territories would be green ammonia
consumers. According to Mech: “The good news is that there are
suppliers and consumers. That tells us that there is a market for
green ammonia within Canada itself.”
Grid StorageInterestingly, the
analysis also points out that the three provinces can also store
their excess renewable electricity for later use, by running
FuelPositive’s commercial modular and scalable carbon-free NH3
production systems on site. The problem with renewables in the past
was that there was no viable and scalable excess energy storage
mechanism. FuelPositive has developed a patent-pending system to
economically produce and store carbon-free ammonia from air, water
and sustainable electricity – wherever it is needed, whenever it is
needed. During periods of peak demand, even when there is no wind
for windmills or sun for solar panels, the extra carbon-free NH3
stored on site can be combusted in NH3-burning turbines to generate
and distribute electricity to meet demand. [link to Grid Storage:
