Abstract

Zhao et al. find that ammonia has the lowest source-to-tank energy cost for vehicle fuel cells when considering carbon-neutral pathways starting from sun, wind, air, and water. A direct ammonia fuel cell with high power output is achieved, reducing the key technological barrier to realizing the economic and environmental benefits of ammonia as a transportation fuel.
