A hydrogen-powered ship is a vessel that uses hydrogen as its primary source of energy, typically through fuel cells or hydrogen combustion engines, to achieve propulsion. These ships represent a significant innovation in maritime technology, aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.
MF Hydra is the world's first liquid hydrogen-powered ferry.Delivered in 2021, the 82.4-meter-long vessel can accommodate up to 300 passengers and 80 vehicles. [1] It has two 200 kW fuel cells, two 440 kW generators, and two Shottel thrusters. [2]
The world’s first hydrogen-powered commercial passenger ferry will start operating on San Francisco Bay as part of plans to phase out diesel-powered vessels and reduce planet-warming carbon ...
Another 2022 article, in Recharge News, stated that ships are more likely to be powered by ammonia or methanol than hydrogen. [169] Also in 2022, Germany's Fraunhofer Institute concluded that hydrogen is unlikely to play a major role in road transport. [28]

With zero emissions and reduced maintenance, the hydrogen fuel cell powertrain system offers the same operational flexibility as diesel. [4] The ferry generates electricity from hydrogen fuel cells to run electric motors for up to 300 nautical miles at a speed of 15 knots.
A joint design by Canada's Ballard Power Systems and Australia's Global Energy Ventures is currently developing a ship where hydrogen is transported in a compressed gas form. [4] Kawasaki Heavy Industries is a member of HySTRA and, along with Iwatani, Shell, and Electric Power Development, plans to promote hydrogen as a fuel source. [5]
