News Highlights: the use of fuel cell technology to reduce emissions from ships
Swedish technology provider Alfa Laval has launched a research project that aims to accelerate the development of solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) technology and use it to produce green marine fuel.
Together with partners such as the Technical University of Denmark and the Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller Center for Zero Carbon, Alfa Laval will lead the development of the SOFC4Maritime project, which used green fuels such as ammonia, hydrogen and biomethane to power onboard. of ships. .

Ørsted Launches Pioneering Offshore Wind–to-Hydrogen Project
Danish renewable energy giant Ørsted issued a final investment decision on the H2RES renewable hydrogen demonstration project, a pivotal power-to-mobility project that will use 2 MW of offshore wind–fed electrolyzing capacity to produce around 1,000 kilograms (kg) of green hydrogen daily.
The decision on Jan. 20 is a major boost for the H2RES project, which is backed by the Danish Energy Agency’s Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Programme (EUDP).

H2RES will have a capacity of 2 MW. The facility will produce up to around 1,000 kg of renewable hydrogen daily, which will be used to fuel road transport in Greater Copenhagen and on Zealand.
Orsted has taken final investment decision on the Danish demonstration project H2RES, which will use offshore wind energy to produce renewable hydrogen.
The project is expected to produce its first hydrogen in late 2021 and will be Orsted s first renewable hydrogen project in operation.

The facility is expected to produce up to around 1000kg of renewable hydrogen daily, which will be used to fuel road transport in Greater Copenhagen and on Zealand.
Orsted executive vice president and chief executive of Orsted Offshore Martin Neubert said: We see renewable hydrogen and other sustainable fuels as cornerstones in reaching net-zero emissions by 2050, and H2RES will contribute with key learnings to turn Europe s ambitious build-out targets for renewable hydrogen into a new industrial success story.
