Enova announced the 15 pre-projects that gets support through funding for hydrogen projects in maritime transport. 5 of the supported projects are developed by businesses in the cluster!

The £2.2 million HIMET (Hydrogen in an Integrated Maritime Energy Transition) project will explore solutions for decarbonising ferries as well as shore-side activities in ports. It is one of 55 projects selected for funding under the Department for Transport’s flagship Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition, delivered in partnership with Innovate UK.

Clean energy solutions provider Unitrove is launching a campaign to clean up the global maritime sector by delivering the world’s first liquid hydrogen bunkering facility for fuelling zero-emission ships. Unitrove will showcase its liquid hydrogen technology at the UN COP26 conference, which is currently scheduled to be held in Glasgow from the beginning of November 2021.

In February we told you about the 8 bachelor and 3 master students we were supervising from the Western Norway University of Applied Sciences (HVL). One of these students were Albert Gjørvad, and his thesis landed him an internship at one of our cluster members.

As a member of Ocean Hyway Cluster, you get access to relevant resources and tools regarding maritime hydrogen in our member area. Member area contains relevant resources that our cluster members can use for business development and increase knowledge.

Azane Fuel Solutions’ first project “Ammonia Fuel Bunkering Network”, which will build a green ammonia bunkering terminal, have today received confirmation that it will be granted NOK 89 million (EUR 8,600,000) through the Norwegian Green Platform Initiative. This was announced by Minister of Climate and Environment in Norway, Mr. Sveinung Rotevatn in Florø, Norway today.

Hexagon Purus, a leading global supplier of zero emission mobility technology and equipment, has delivered hydrogen tanks to Sea Change, the first passenger vessel on hydrogen fuel cells.

Nor-Shipping is one of the world’s most important meeting areas for the shipping industry and the maritime sector. The next Nor-Shipping is set to 10-13. January 2022, and partners up with Ocean Hyway Cluster to make a hydrogen pavilion in the Blue Economy Hall.
