Transition Your Ships To Zero-Emissions With Ballard’s New FCwave
The title of this post, is the same as that of this post on the Ballard blog.
This is the introductory paragraph.
Today, the maritime sector accounts for approximately 2.5% of global carbon emissions, equivalent to 940 megatonnes each year . But the industry is now moving into a new era of mobility, where sustainability and climate change issues are top of mind.
And this paragraph introduces Ballard’s solution.
At Ballard, we’re here to support ship operators and marine propulsion integrators in this transition. Today, we’ll introduce you to our new FCwave™ fuel cell module—the world’s first commercial fuel cell solution for marine vessels.
There is a link to a brochure.
The blog also has two videos and a picture of a Caledonian MacBrayne ferry, which is labelled Ballard Fuel Cell Powered HySeas Consortium Ferry, so is a hydrogen-powered ferry coming to an island near you or where you like to go?
This article on the Liverpool Echo is entitled Plans For A New Ferry To Cross The Mersey.
As the current two ferries, were in service when I was a student at Liverpool University in the 1960s, replacement of one of the most iconic, if not the most iconic ferries in the world with hydrogen power would be a smart move, by both Liverpool and Ballard.
Especially, as the Liverpool area is not short of hydrogen.
