North America is witnessing significant interest in ammonia-diesel dual-fuel engines due to growing regulatory mandates to decarbonize maritime and heavy-duty transportation sectors. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and various clean port initiatives are accelerating research and pilot projects involving alternative fuels, including ammonia. Maritime clusters along the Gulf Coast and Pacific Northwest are actively exploring the transition to cleaner propulsion systems, creating fertile ground for ammonia-fueled technologies. However, the market still faces infrastructure limitations and the absence of clear ammonia bunkering standards. Safety concerns and limited awareness across traditional ship operators also slow adoption. With strong R&D investments, the region presents robust opportunities for manufacturers and technology developers. Partnerships among maritime players, port authorities, and energy firms are shaping a promising landscape for innovation and scale-up. The market is transitioning from pilot testing to early commercialization.
