Hydrogen ship

Hydrogen ship

A hydrogen ship is a hydrogen-fueled ship, power-assisted by an electric motor that gets its electricity from a fuel cell.

History

2000, the 22-person "Hydra" ship was demonstrated, 2003, the Duffy-Herreshoff watertaxi went into service, 2003 Yacht "No. 1" debuted, as well "Hydroxy3000" [http://iese.heig-vd.ch/hydroxy] . The AUV DeepC and Yacht "XV 1" were shown in 2004, 2006, debut of the 12-person "Xperiance", 2007 the 8-person "Tuckerboot" and the Canal boat "Ross Barlow" debuted, 2008 the 100-passenger Zemships project is underway.

Economy

Hjalti Pall Ingolfsson from Icelandic New Energy, commented that ships are fast becoming the biggest source of air pollution in the EU. It is estimated that by 2020 emissions of sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from ships will exceed land-based emissions in Europe another big issue to be dealt with would be the storage of hydrogen on ships, given that there would be no opportunity to refill them when out to sea [ [http://cordis.europa.eu/fetch?CALLER=EN_NEWS&ACTION=D&SESSION=&RCN=26826 NEW H SHIP] ] .

Infrastructure

The need for a hydrogen infrastructure varies, where the Yacht "No. 1" was fueled by a mobile hydrogen station [ [http://www.ivi.fraunhofer.de/frames/english/projects/produktbl/hytra_en.pdf Hytra] ] , the Yacht "XV 1" has onboard generation, the "Xperiance" and "Tuckerboot" have exchangeable high-pressure hydrogen tanks which can be refilled at a local hydrogen station, the canal boat "Ross Barlow" uses fixed onboard low-pressure solid-state metal hydride storage tanks and depends on a refilling station on the waterside, the Zemships refills at a fixed waterside storage tank with 17,000 liters of hydrogen which is refuelled by a compressed hydrogen tube trailer.

Codes and standards

Hydrogen codes and standards have repeatedly been identified as a major institutional barrier to deploying hydrogen technologies and developing a hydrogen economy. To enable the commercialization of hydrogen in consumer products, new model building codes and equipment and other technical standards are developed and recognized by federal, state, and local governments. [ [http://www.hydrogen.energy.gov/codes_standards.html DOE codes and standards] ] The Germanischer Lloyd guidelines for fuel cells on ships and boats is used for the hydra, tuckerboot, Yacht no 1, zebotec and zemships.

Research

The NEW H SHIP project was a 15-month project that started February 2004.FC-SHIP was funded by the European Commission under FP5 - GROWTH from 2002 to 2004. The Viking Fellowship is a Nordic project [ [http://www.dnv.com/publications/dnv_forum/no3-2006/Fuelcelltechnologyintroducesultracleanships.asp DNV Fellowship] ] . The SMART H2 project started in 2007 [ [http://www.ectos.is/en/icelandic_new_energy/ Smart H2] ] by placing a fuel cell in the existing whale-watching ship "Elding" [ [http://www.reuters.com/article/environmentNews/idUSL1465235520080123?feedType=RSS&feedName=environmentNews Elding] ] .
