After sending a cold email to Newlab in 2020, Amogy joined our Brooklyn Navy Yard facility and started its business at a single desk. Now, Amogy has grown to the point where they are occupying nearly 4000 square feet in the greater Newlab community. As an early-stage Newlab member, Amogy leveraged the vibrant startup community, lab space, and expertise available to rapidly scale from concept to commercialization.
Now, Woo has seen his vision grow into a Series B company, while making immense progress on his large scale goals. Amogy's ammonia-to-hydrogen onboard conversion technology is considered a groundbreaking zero-emission fuel source that has now been successfully piloted to power drones, tractors, long-haul trucks, and very soon, an ammonia-powered, zero-emission tugboat. Getting the first ammonia-powered vessel on the water signals a huge milestone in the larger journey to zero-emissions shipping, as ammonia is predicted to become the leading fuel source for the world’s giant cargo ships by 2050. What’s next? Amogy recently announced plans to move into its own 53,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Houston—a pivotal step in their journey to accelerate the global energy transition and revolutionize clean tech.
