Hydrogen-Powered Ferries Challenges

As a part of the goal to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions by mid-century, research and deployment of alternative fuels is becoming increasingly important. The significant overall pollution from the shipping industry argues for an appropriate response, namely a switch to alternative marine fuels. Several projects are currently underway aiming to introduce hydrogen-powered ferries in Europe. This paper provides qualitative and quantitative data on the current possibilities of using hydrogen as a fuel in ferries. Compared to conventional diesel propulsion, the technological challenges, opportunities, and cost-effectiveness of hydrogen-powered ferries are discussed, especially from an environmental perspective.
