Ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) is a form of nitrogen. The vast majority of ammonia is used for [[fertilizer]]. Ammonia production requires [[energy]]. Currently [[haber-bosch process|this is mainly done with fossil fuels]].

But suppose we find another (greener) scaleable way to produce it... Then could it also be used as the "fuel of the future"? Because apparently it's easier to work with (storage, transport, etc) than [[hydrogen gas]].
