Revolutionizing Maritime Emissions: Barge-Based Hydrogen Power and Emission Control Project
Key Ideas
- e1 Marine and STAX Engineering partner to deploy emission capture and control technology on barge vessels, aiming to accelerate decarbonization in the maritime industry.
- The collaboration combines e1 Marine's methanol-to-hydrogen power systems with STAX's emissions capture and control technology, expected to enhance vessel cleanliness significantly.
- Funded by South Coast AQMD and California Air Resources Board, this project is a part of California Climate Investments program, showcasing a commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
- The partnership emphasizes immediate effectiveness, regulatory compliance, and driving the maritime industry towards a cleaner and more sustainable future through innovative hydrogen-powered solutions.
e1 Marine and STAX Engineering have joined forces to advance emission capture and control technology for ocean-going vessels, with a focus on decarbonizing the maritime industry. The partnership involves installing e1 Marine's methanol-to-hydrogen power systems (M2PWR) onto STAX's barges to demonstrate sustainable emissions capture and control. STAX's technology is designed to significantly reduce pollution from vessels, complemented by e1 Marine's M2PWR enhancing power source cleanliness. The project, funded by South Coast AQMD and California Air Resources Board, aims to deploy this technology in early 2025. The collaboration showcases a dedication to regulatory compliance and evolving emissions mandates, driving towards a cleaner future. Additionally, e1 Marine has also collaborated with NAVTEK and other partners to develop hydrogen-powered vessels and conduct tests for propulsion chains, demonstrating a commitment to innovative clean energy solutions in the maritime sector.
