The partnership was launched back in 2019 as the two companies decided to combine the technical and economic know-how for the joint development of cross-sector fuel cell projects. <\/p>\n
The \u201cHydrogen Electric System\u201d (H2ES) developed by eCap combines Re-Fire fuel cell technology with the latest hydrogen and electrical components to form an innovative and environmentally friendly drive solution for shipping. <\/p>\n
The now-approved fuel cell solution can be installed on deck and encompasses cabinets for up to 440 kW power.<\/p>\n
Fuel cells as a zero-emission propulsion solution for marine applications are expected to play a significant role in the process of the maritime industry’s decarbonization.<\/p>\n
At this stage, the technology has asserted its position as a viable source of marine energy to supporting auxiliary energy requirements and powering smaller ships. Short-sea shipping is expected to be among the prime early adopters of fuel cell solutions.<\/p>\n
However, research studies are underway to develop fuel cells as a general energy source for most loads on electric ships.<\/p>\n
