Design for ship running 100% on hydrogen


Aurelia Green Ship Concept Design has won the Certificate of Approval in Principle issued by Rina for a ro-ro cargo vessel with electric propulsion using highly compressed H2 as fuel.

 

Rina was founded in Genoa in 1861 under the name Registro Italiano Navale, one of the world's first ship classification registers. Since 2000, the private, multinational company has transformed itself into a “business-to-society" group specialising in testing, inspection, certification and engineering solutions.

 

Now, Aurelia Green Ship Concept Design has unveiled its new design with 100% hydrogen propulsion called ACD 01 1000. Its difference is marked by the ship's hydrogen-based engine system, which can be applied to other ship designs.

 

The fuel used to operate the vessel is 100% compressed hydrogen which generates no environmentally harmful emissions with a design which can be considered as zero emission not only in port, but also during navigation. The hybrid propulsion is based on battery and fuel cell power modules, and it is not supported by internal combustion engines supplied by petroleum-based conventional fuels. (sh)
