Norway funds two hydrogen maritime transport projects

0

Norway is funding a hydrogen (H2)-powered high-speed ferry and short-sea freighter through its PILOT-E scheme.

A grant has been awarded to HYON, a joint venture established in 2017 by Nel, Hexagon Composites and PowerCell Sweden.

The ambitions of both projects are to realise zero-emission propulsion via fuel cells using cost-efficient H2 produced from electrolysis based on renewable energy.

The ferry, known as Project Zero Emission Fast Ferry (ZEFF), will have a cruise speed of between 25 and 45 knots. The power to propulsion will be produced by fuel cells fuelled by H2 and batteries.
