FUELSAVE’s FS MARINE+ technology optimises combustion through the dynamic injection of hydrogen, oxygen, water and methanol through the air intake.
Vessel will be supported by proposed charging infrastructure and equipped with battery packs which could be swapped for charging during ops.
Concept development and feasibility study aims for a moored barge to generate, store and provide hydrogen to vessels bunkering at the same port.
Companies will collaborate and identify opportunities to help transition from current marine fuels to alternatives such as LNG, biofuels, and methanol.
‘Tackling climate change is too big a challenge for one organisation to fix alone. Radical carbon reduction throughout supply chains is an absolute necessity,’ states UECC...
‘We are highly satisfied to see the initial results showing an immediate effect on reducing the vessel’s fuel consumption,’ says company statement.
Collaboration aims to confirm the feasibility and performance of hydrogen for use as a commercially viable alternative fuel for line-haul rail and marine vessels.
Results of the development will be released in a video with accompanying 3D models in January 2022 at the time of the project’s completion.
Battery-powered vessel is the first Dutch inland vessel to use interchangeable energy containers for propulsion, says operator Zero Emission Services.
Stuart Crawford, Managing Director of methanol-to-hydrogen generator technology developer e1 Marine, explains why its technology is shipping’s answer for decarbonisation.
