Alaska’s 720,000 people live in over 200 “energy
islands” with no electricity grid connection to each other nor to North
America. Smaller communities have no road connection to each other, the rest of
Alaska, or the continent. Most energy is imported: diesel for electricity
generation and heat; gasoline for transportation. All Alaskans might obtain an
annually-firm supply of most of their energy, for all purposes, by converting
Alaska’s diverse, stranded, renewable energy (RE) resources to liquid anhydrous
ammonia (NH3) fuel, transporting and storing it at low cost in common steel
propane tanks, recovering the RE via stationary combined-heat-and-power (CHP)
plants, in internal combustion engine (ICE) and combustion turbine (CT) gen sets,
and via fuel cells, and as transportation fuel. Alaskans could achieve a
significant degree of community energy independence, and perhaps export their
abundant, stranded renewable as “green” liquid NH3 fuel. Solid state ammonia
synthesis (SSAS) appears promising.
