VINSSEN has received project-based approval from Bureau Veritas (BV) for its hydrogen fuel cell system designed for use onboard maritime applications.
The 60kW PEM fuel cell system encompasses a fuel cell module, an integrated converter module, a battery system and a transformer. In addition, VINSSEN incorporated a user interface for easy control by operators.
The approval is based on a trial being carried out in Singapore in collaboration with Shell Singapore, the project sponsor; Seatrium Limited, project developer; Penguin International Limited, trial vessel owner and operator; and Air Liquide Singapore, hydrogen expert and provider.
A statement released by VINSSEN explained that the confirmation of its fuel cell system is “a key step towards demonstrating the feasibility of hydrogen fuel cell systems onboard commercial vessels.”
