Genevos, a French company known for its expertise in hydrogen and fuel cell power systems integration for maritime applications, has announced its participation in the H2-SEAS consortium. This consortium, comprising various entities including Riga Technical University and A2Z Gannet SIA, aims to develop a cutting-edge hydrogen-electric fishing vessel prototype. Genevos will be responsible for designing and delivering the energy system engineering, featuring marine-certified hydrogen fuel cell power systems and gas storage for the vessel. The project will involve the construction and demonstration of a 12-meter fishing vessel powered by a 100 kW electric engine, with a focus on testing its resilience in challenging marine conditions. Scheduled for deployment in three countries by 2026, the prototype is expected to showcase enhanced energy efficiency and eco-friendliness with zero emissions and minimal sound pollution. This initiative is funded under the Horizon Europe Framework Programme, aligning with the EU's goals for climate action and sustainability. The project seeks to contribute to achieving the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, specifically focusing on restoring and preserving the ocean and waters by 2030. By introducing greener and energy-efficient technologies in small-scale fisheries, the project aims to reduce environmental impact, fuel consumption, and acoustic noise. Additionally, Genevos' CEO, Rebecca Sharp, emphasized the company's dedication to decarbonizing the maritime sector and supporting vital environmental missions. Alongside its involvement in the H2-SEAS project, Genevos has recently signed a collaboration agreement with ACUA Ocean to develop hydrogen-powered Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs). This strategic collaboration aims to integrate hydrogen marine fuel cells into USVs, further advancing sustainable maritime solutions. Furthermore, Genevos secured significant funding, including €2.5 million in seed funding, to accelerate the commercialization of its innovations. This financial support will play a crucial role in expanding Genevos' product offerings in various maritime markets, including workboats, service vessels, and ferries, reinforcing the company's position as a pioneer in sustainable maritime technologies.
