Come meet partners of the Flagships project at Waterborne´s stand (PAV 2, STAND 2.24)!

TRA, the Transport Research Arena, is the largest European research and technology conference on transport and mobility.

TRA is the foremost European transport event that covers all transport modes and all aspects of mobility. In 2022, TRA takes place in Lisbon, Portugal. Themed “Moving together – reimagining mobility worldwide”, TRA2022 brings together experts from around the world to discuss the newest innovations and future of mobility and transport, building also on the Portuguese historical legacy and links to overseas transport professionals. Through the development of innovative solutions, TRA Lisbon 2022 aims for a more efficient, safer, carbon-free, inclusive, and sustainable transport in all its modes.

Flagships at SMM: Emission free cargo transport
2022-09-07 13:00 - 13:30 | SMM Hamburg, Messeplatz 1, Hamburg, Germany
Introducing the worlds first hydrogen cargo vessel – meet the Flagships project at stand B7.102!

The partners will present their solutions for not one, but two commercially operated hydrogen fuel cell vessels. First out is the Zulu vessel, ready to transport goods emission free in the middle of Paris. Second is the inland container vessel FPS Waal, aiming to sail on green hydrogen on the Rhine river in 2023.

Electric Hybrid Marine Conference
2022-06-22 09:00 - 17:00
During the conference in Amsterdam, FLAGSHIPS lessons are part of Persee’s presentation in the session on Assessing alternative fuels for hybrid vessels, 22 June.

Colin Bettini, Technical lead – fuel cell at Persee, will present Successes and challenges of fuel cell and hydrogen propulsion systems.

Fuel cell hybrid systems are steadily emerging as a solution for the decarbonization of commercial transport. Hydrogen and other hydrogen carriers achieve high emission savings from widely used fuels and drive high expectations for the shipping of the future.

The presentation outlines the experience, hurdles and success of four ongoing FCHJU-funded maritime projects: Maranda, Flagships, ShipFC and HyShip. In a cross-analysis, we will explore the readiness level of the hydrogen and fuel cell technologies available on the European market.

The presentation also addresses current and upcoming challenges to truly achieve zero-emission shipping.

Nor-Shipping 2022: Hydrogen vessels ready for zero-emission cargo transport
2022-04-04 15:30 - 16:00
The world´s first hydrogen cargo vessel is ready to ply the river Seine in 2022 – transporting goods emission-free in the middle of Paris.

The revolutionary FLAGSHIPS project will take zero-emission waterborne transport to an entirely new level by deploying two commercially operated hydrogen fuel cell vessels. The second vessel will prove green compressed hydrogen as a zero-emission fuel also on more power demanding routes – starting operating on the river Rhine in 2023.

Monday 4 April the FLAGSHIPS partners will present the hydrogen vessels at the Maritime CleanTech stage (T02 -27) at 15.30.

Marine Fuel Cells – where are we now?
2022-03-15 10:00 - 11:30
Shipping is searching for its new zero-emissions power technology. Whilst combustion engines are still the market leaders, fuel cell providers are intriguing us with the promise of higher efficiency and lowered fuel consumption. How ready are the FC technologies, and do they have a solid business case? And just how much more effective are they proving to be?

While fuels such as ammonia and hydrogen will drastically reduce emissions, we also see vast potential in utilizing a higher percentage of the energy available in each fuel. This is where fuel cells come in, as the most energy-efficient devices for extracting power from fuels.

The European projects ShipFC and FLAGSHIPS are both demonstrating fuel cell technologies for achieving their zero-emission solutions for maritime activities. In this Tech Update, we’ve gathered representatives from ShipFC, FLAGSHIPS, and other leading actors within the FC ecosystem. The topic: Status quo of fuel cells for marine use.

In this webinar, both providers, users and researchers will answer questions on efficiencies, challenges and how far they have come on the road to commercialization.

Join us on the 15 March to get the answers.

Agenda:

Introduction, Tore Boge, Project Manager Maritime CleanTech/Project Coordinator ShipFC “A shipowners perspective”, Hilde-Kristin Sæter, Project Manager, Norled “Production status quo”, Kristina Fløche Juelsgaard, Director of market development, Ballard “Production status quo”, at Torleif Stokke, Head of Commercialization, Alma Clean Power “Production status quo”, Pedram Nadim, Business Developer Hydrogen Technology, TECO2030 “Production status quo”, Seonghoon Woo, CEO, Amogy “Fuel cell market position”, Anders Ødegård, Senior Project Manger, SINTEF Concluding remarks, Tore Boge, Project Manager Maritime CleanTech/Project Coordinator ShipFC

THE REALITIES OF HYDROGEN
2021-09-15 09:25 - 10:40
Flagships partner CFT (Compagnie Fluvial de Transport) participate at this hydrogen event. The french state has decided to invest massively in the production of clean hydrogen and its use in transport. However, researchers and manufacturers had not waited. An ecosystem has been in place for some thirty years, particularly in Burgundy-Franche-Comté. A number of manufacturers are already implementing solutions for running on hydrogen, whether gaseous, liquid or in the form of fuel cells. The distribution network is beginning to be set up. As old as the conquest of space, hydrogen is gaining ground in the transport and logistics sectors, while becoming clean. How and what to invest in?
