Consortium of partners
Hydrogen • Renewable Power
MV Shapinsay, the first hydrogen fuel cell ferryboat in the world obtaining its energy from renewables such as wind and tidal power is undergoing trials between the Orkney Islands in Scotland.
The HyDIME project is made up of a consortium of partners being led by Ferguson Marine. Partners include Ballard, ULEMCo, Lloyd’s Register, HSSMI and Orkney Islands Council and is funded by the EU project HySeas III. The ferry has initially been trialled using hydrogen to fuel its auxiliary power while docked before undergoing sea tests.
