Corvus Energy's Breakthrough: Safest Fuel Cell System in the Maritime Industry
Key Ideas
  • Corvus Energy's Pelican Fuel Cell System, with nitrogen inerting technology, receives DNV Type Approval, marking it as the safest in the market.
  • Partnership with Toyota and successful collaboration lead to the development of a high-quality range extender for marine decarbonization.
  • The system's first installation on the Skulebas in Norway will allow the vessel to operate emission-free for up to four days, enhancing its existing battery system.
  • Toyota's fuel cell technology proves transferable to the maritime sector, reinforcing its role in supporting decarbonization efforts in shipping.
Corvus Energy has achieved a significant milestone with the DNV Type Approval of their Pelican Fuel Cell System, making it the safest system in the maritime industry. This system stands out for its use of nitrogen for inerting, enhancing safety levels. Collaborating with Toyota and leveraging their expertise in fuel cell technology, Corvus Energy has developed a high-quality range extender that promises to drive marine decarbonization. The successful partnership has led to the integration of a real-time advisory system, the Corvus CoPilot, providing remote monitoring and performance testing capabilities. The first installation of this system on the Skulebas vessel in Norway will enable days of zero-emission operation, complementing its existing battery setup. Thiebault Paquet of Toyota highlighted the transferability of their fuel cell technology to the maritime sector, supporting efforts towards decarbonizing shipping. Overall, the approval and implementation of the Corvus Pelican Fuel Cell System signify a significant step towards a sustainable future in the maritime industry.
