The vessel’s 2,700kW hydrogen fuel cell integrates battery storage, optimising efficiency by storing excess energy for low-load operations and boosting power during high-output demands.
Before Green Cat Hydrogen submits a planning application it will hold two public consultation events, allowing the public to view the plans and provide feedback.
Ed Husic, Minister for Industry and Science, said, “Demand for green metals is expected to account for a third of the global metals market in coming years, this is an opportunity we cannot afford to miss.”
Wastewater from a nearby treatment plant is repurposed using Waterhelm’s technology to create reusable water, which is then electrolysed by Logan Energy’s systems to produce green hydrogen – providing clean shore power for berthed vessels.
House Republicans argued that the tax incentives are essential for achieving US energy dominance and have attracted significant investments to their districts.
Part of the wide Vast Solar 1 initiative, Vast and project partner Mabanaft will produce green methanol derived from hydrogen in South Australia.
Representing 6.3GW of proposed electrolyser capacity, the projects aim to produce over 7.3 million tonnes of renewable hydrogen over 10 years.
Morocco will offer the projects up to 30,000 hectares of land, attracting global investors such as Moeve, ACWA Power and Ortus.
A 3.1GW solar array with pumped hydro storage will power electrolysers by day and generate electricity at night for continuous operation.
