Kongsberg launches first full-scale hydrogen-based marine propulsion system; HySeas III

Green Car Congress

Kongsberg has tested and verified a full-scale, full-size, zero-emissions drivetrain powered by hydrogen fuel cells designed for ships and ferries. The program is the third and final part of the EU-funded project HySeas (HySeas III) which has been running since 2013 to prepare and demonstrate a scalable hydrogen system for ships and ferries.

Expleo develops closed-loop, e-methanol fuel cell solution for global shipping

Green Car Congress

Expleo modeled its system-of-systems solution on the multi-tasking Bibby Wavemaster 1 , a vessel used to service offshore wind farms. The solution was defined during Expleo’s feasibility study into clean power propulsion systems, funded through the UK Department for Transport’s (DfT) Clean Marine Demonstration Competition (CMDC).
