Fuel cell study / assessment of alternative fuels for fuel cell-powered energy on board ships (german)
The findings of the e4ships analyses showcase the great potential of fuel cells used in combination with eco-friendly fuels. Since their efficiency outperforms conventional energy converters for ships, these technologies are set to make a key contribution to the reduction of noxious emissions in shipping, and CO2 especially. The possibilities that fuel cells offer for improving the energy-emissions balance prove that these technologies – combined with eco-friendly fuels – can considerably lower ships' GHG emissions.
