Trading Conditions for Ultra-High Efficiency Energy Storage Containers for Marine Use

Are fuel cells viable for maritime applications?

Key findings reveal that fuel cells must achieve operational lifespans exceeding 46,000 h to be viable for maritime applications. Additionally, reliance solely on volumetric energy density underestimates storage needs, necessitating provisions for cofferdams, ullage space, tank heels, and hydrogen conditioning areas.

How are energy storage solutions transforming modern ship propulsion?

Energy-storage solutions (ESS) from Siemens are creating more agile, profitable and sustainable vessels. Whether it’s a new build or a refit, a hybrid or an all-electric vessel, these battery-based energy storage solutions are helping redefine modern ship propulsion.
