The proposed detailed feasibility study with a data gathering element to inform on technology unknowns brings together a necessarily broad Team with the specific skills to evidence to the sector with a TeesSide demonstrator, that there will be a complete & viable "_well-to-wake_" solution with scalable innovative smart shipping technologies that place dat...

Hydrogen Zero Emission Maritime (HyZEM) brings together leading UK and Australian technology partners to deliver transformational progress for zero-emission maritime hydrogen innovation. It specifically addresses decarbonisation of vessels through development of interconnected modular hydrogen storage and hydrogen propulsion technologies to de-risk and ac...

Whilst mostly everyone will know something about propellers and that they drive a boat in the marine world, perhaps the one common thread of that knowledge will be that it is literally at the tail-end of the boat. Being the last component in the vessel drivetrain has meant that it is generally the most ignored in respect of the system. It is said that the...

In April 2018, the International Marine Organisation (IMO) set the ambitious goal to decarbonise the global fleet in the Marine Environmental Protection Committee (MEPC) Resolution (MEPC204(72)). This includes a reduction in Carbon Dioxide emissions of 40% in 2030, further extending to a reduction of 70% in 2050 when compared with 2008\. There is on the h...

Net-Zero Windfarm O&M with Hydrogen-Electric Marine Propulsion Drivetrains project collaborators will realise meaningful zero-emission marine propulsion innovation in the Tees Valley Duodrive are project lead, based in Tees Valley with demonstrators of electric drive high efficiency contra-rotating marine propulsion developed with the assistance of the Te...

Whilst much is discussed about the potential for **"Green Hydrogen"** from renewable energy to become the Marine sector's primary energy source to replace fossil-fuels, there are neither demonstrators nor infrastructure visible to encourage take-up by the many small ships, owners of which are, as with the electric car, waiting to see how such an option ca...

In direct response to the Clean Maritime Plan, a team of lean and green, zero-emission SMEs have combined to propose a unique solution to the current issues facing commercial and service vessels. We intend to exploit our respective technologies by conducting a feasibility study on a soon-to-be commissioned zero-emissions research vessel for Plymouth Marin...

Maritime freight and passenger transport is essential but the current mode of energy utilisation is not sustainable. The resulting air pollution (e.g. smoke / particle matter, NOx, SOx) from marine diesel engines affects coastal regions around port cities and busy waterways where there is now a pressing need to decarbonize to meet regulatory and local urb...
