MHI, ITB Extend Ammonia Fuel Research Collaboration

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. (MHI) and Indonesia’s Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB) have signed a new research agreement to extend their collaboration on clean power generation, with a continued focus on ammonia-based fuel applications.
The extended agreement builds on earlier joint studies and will deepen research into ammonia combustion, particularly its safe and effective application in gas turbine systems. The collaboration aims to strengthen technical understanding to support the practical use of ammonia as a carbon-free fuel in power generation, contributing to Indonesia’s long-term decarbonisation objectives.
Speaking at the signing ceremony in Bandung, Satoshi Hada, Senior Vice President, GTCC Business Division, MHI, highlighted the importance of sustained research and development in advancing cleaner power technologies and reinforcing the technical foundations required for ammonia-fuelled power generation.
Prof Dr Ir Ari Darmawan Pasek of ITB emphasised the role of industry–academia collaboration in addressing climate change, noting that the partnership combines academic research with industrial expertise to advance cleaner fuel technologies.
MHI and ITB first entered into a memorandum of understanding in 2020, which was extended in 2022, and has since progressed through multiple initiatives focused on ammonia-fired power generation. The latest agreement continues this long-standing partnership, aligned with Indonesia’s target to achieve net-zero emissions by 2060.
