MAN Cryo has secured a contract with Torghatten Nord A/S, a Norwegian ferry company, to develop two hydrogen-powered RoPax ferries. As part of a Norwegian government initiative to reduce emissions, these ferries will operate on green, compressed hydrogen. MAN Cryo will handle the design of bunkering systems, hydrogen piping, and vent masts, while also acting as the system integrator for the hydrogen process plant. The vessels, set for delivery in 2026, will contribute to the goal of emission-free operations on the challenging mainland-Lofoten Islands crossing. Torghatten Nord A/S's Operational Director expressed satisfaction with the expanded cooperation, highlighting the company's transition from LNG to hydrogen. The partnership between MAN Cryo, The Norwegian Ship Design Company, and other suppliers showcases a commitment to sustainable marine operations and innovation in future-fuel systems. This collaboration aims to set new standards for ecological footprints in the maritime sector, emphasizing a cleaner, greener future. The project is lauded as a significant step towards 'Moving Big Things to Zero,' symbolizing a shift towards zero-emission ferry transportation and a vision for a more sustainable maritime industry.
