FCWave - 200 kW Hydrogen Fuel Cell with Thomas Petersen
Join Thomas Therkild Petersen as he presents the FCWave, a modular 200 kW hydrogen fuel cell for marine purposes made by Ballard. It is the only DNV type approved hydrogen fuel cell on the market. At the size of a large cabinet, it can be directly integrated into most engine rooms without a hitch. Watch this video to gain insights on one of the best hydrogen fuel cell systems available for the maritime industry.
FCWave - 200 kW Hydrogen Fuel Cell
As the world’s first type approved module for marine applications, FCwaveTM uses proven technology from Ballard's heavy duty module platform to deliver reliable performance, high power density and favorable economics.
Hydrogen Powered Propulsion for an Offshore Crane Vessel
This thesis performs a technical, economical and environmental feasibility study of three dense hydrogen carriers as a fuel to power the largest semi-submersible offshore crane vessel in the world – Heerema’s Sleipnir.
Which will be the First Hydrogen-Powered Inland Vessel in Rotterdam?
A curious coincidence In Rotterdam. Two vessels - the ‘MS Antonie’ and ‘the Maas’ claim to become ‘the first hydrogen inland vessel’ in Rotterdam. We have translated their claims from two Dutch news outlets and made a comparison which might help you on your hydrogen journey. The race is on for the first hydrogen-powered inland vessel in Rotterdam!
BP and Ørsted launch green hydrogen project at German oil refinery
BP and Ørsted have partnered to develop a zero-carbon hydrogen at BP’s Lingen Refinery in north-west Germany, BP's first full-scale project in a sector that is expected to grow rapidly. The 50 MW electrolyser project is expected to produce 1 ton of hydrogen per hour - almost 9,000 tonnes a year - starting in 2024. The project could be expanded to up to 500 MW at a later stage to replace all of Lingen’s fossil fuel-based hydrogen.
What Is Green Hydrogen And Will It Power The Future?
Hydrogen is a clean-burning molecule, meaning that it can help to decarbonize a range of sectors that have proved hard to clean up in the past. But today, most hydrogen is produced from CO2-emitting fossil fuels. Hydrogen produced from renewable electricity, known as green hydrogen, could be the solution to cutting our carbon footprint. But first, it must overcome a number of challenges.
Making the Impossible Possible
This blog sketches a vision on how to convert the largest crane vessel in the world - Sleipnir - owned by Heerema Marine Contractors, to a zero-emission vessel. Several promising carbon reduction measures are combined which are technically viable and based on matured technology including electrification and BES, solar panels, synthetic fuels, CCS and possibly hydrogen combustion.
How to decarbonize your ship - Large Fishing Trawler
This is a case study on how to decarbonize a fishing trawler - the Jacobus Maria - using shore power, battery hybrid EES and biofuels. 20% CO2 reduction is achieved, half of which stems from the use of biofuels (HVO). The hybrid battery pack is economically not feasible with the assumptions used and the operational profile. The Jacobus Maria has 1 MW installed engine capacity. Total cost would be at least €1M. 10% CO2 reduction can be achieved with approx. €50k.
Inside a Battery Container
The Corvus BOB (Battery On Board) is a standardized, class-approved, modular battery room solution available in 10-foot and 20-foot ISO high-cube container sizes. The complete system comes with battery, monitoring system, HVAC , TR exhaust, plus firefighting and detection system. The plug and play battery room simplifies integration into any system integrator’s power management system on board a ship. The battery cells have passive thermal runaway protection, and are type-approved according to DNV.
Maritime Battery Forum with Syb ten Cate Hoedemaker
During the lunch and learn, current forum Director Syb ten Cate Hoedemaker will exchange knowledge and experience from the usage of batteries within the shipping and offshore industries. You will learn which batteries will suit your vessel, plus discover the costs and payback for different operational modes. Which battery suits your vessel, your needs, your operational profile? This is the key question discussed in this lunch and learn with Maritime Battery Forum.
Get Ready for the Alfa Lift, an Electric-Hybrid Heavy Lift Crane Vessel
The Alfa Lift, a new build heavy lift crane vessel owned by Offshore Heavy Transport, is on track to enter service by early 2022. The vessel features a 3,000 ton main crane, 10,000+ m² smart deck which can be fully submerged to a depth of 15 meters and a electric-hybrid battery system made by Kongsberg.
Webinar - Kongsberg Hybrid Solutions
A webinar on hybrid propulsion systems for offshore giving an introduction to a selection of our hybrid battery solutions and the advantages they offer.
The Big Friendly Hybrid Giant
The North Sea Giant, a Norwegian offshore construction vessel, is the first DNV class-approved ‘hybrid’ DP3 vessel with three batteries on-board that have a total capacity of 2.034 kWh. The batteries have been installed in an upgrade and serve the purpose of spinning reserve, peak shaving and load leveling. Since then, fuel consumption is reduced in all operational modes with over 2 million liters of diesel per year, saving up to 30% fuel.
