The Fukui prefectural government in Japan has revealed plans to construct a clean ammonia and hydrogen distribution network. This initiative underscores a growing trend towards sustainable and renewable energy sources in the country. In parallel, the Japan Research Institute (JRI) has entered a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with a regional entity in Chubu to collaborate on building ammonia and hydrogen supply chains. While there are concerns about the financial feasibility of projects like co-firing ammonia and coal, there is a clear dedication to advancing clean energy infrastructure. Additionally, a prefectorial and industry forum in Japan focusing on hydrogen and ammonia supply chain development is on track to broaden its membership, indicating increasing interest and involvement in the sector. Local governments, such as the Ehime prefecture, are also seeking support from the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) to boost their clean energy initiatives. This coordinated effort highlights Japan's strong push towards establishing sustainable energy networks and reducing reliance on traditional fossil fuels.
