Presentation

Extending zero-emission operations with energy storage & fuel cell systems

Combining energy storage together with fuel cells, plus a green fuel, such as hydrogen, takes zero-emission technology one step further. It provides an efficient solution to expand the range and flexibility of zero-emission operations and enables new emissions savings for longer-route and larger vessels that previously were not achievable. This presentation will outline benefits of the technology and share insights from the multi-year development and testing of a marine fuel cell system.
