Presentation

Experiences with integrating fuel cell solutions with batteries in aquaculture vessels

This presentation will share the experience from integrating a fuel cell – designed originally for trucks – with batteries in an aquaculture service vessel built by Moen Marin. It is the first time that a high-effect fuel cell has been fully integrated with a large liquid-cooled MNC battery system for the aquaculture sector. The project is part of the Norwegian Pilot E program. We will also describe how the project is integrated into an operational infrastructure concept, accessing FC hydrogen but also electricity through ZEM's compact powerbank charging containers with 550-800kWh battery capacity.
