    Japan wants to import (synthesized with renewables) ammonia to burn in thermal power plants. Their future energy policy is pretty ridiculous. Like, if you're actually considering ammonia power plants then you might as well just build a big solar farm in geosynchronous orbit.

      a big solar farm in geosynchronous orbit.

      Last I heard JAXA was planning to launch a proof-of-concept for this technology in 2025, dunno if that's still on schedule or not.
