Driving Shipping Decarbonisation Through Sustainable Solutions
Key Ideas
  • LR partners with ROTOBOOST and Amogy for a study on fuel cells and Carbon Capture Storage Systems.
  • The project assesses hydrogen fuel cells, ammonia, methane cracking, and CCS for emissions reduction.
  • Focus is on container feeder fleet emissions compliance with EU ETS and IMO CII compared to traditional fuels.
  • ROTOBOOST's Marine Hydrogen tech aims to make LNG a compliant fuel by converting carbon into solid during production.
Lloyd’s Register's business advisory team has joined forces with energy companies ROTOBOOST and Amogy for a study on fuel cells and Carbon Capture Storage Systems (CCS) to evaluate emissions reduction opportunities. The Joint Development Project (JDP) will focus on hydrogen fuel cells, ammonia, methane cracking technology, and CCS, considering technical readiness, financial aspects, and regulatory implications. The study aims to assess the ability of these technologies to cut emissions and costs in a specific container feeder fleet, in compliance with EU ETS (Emissions Trading Scheme) and IMO CII (Carbon Intensity Indicator) requirements, compared to conventional fuels. Key technologies like Amogy’s ammonia-to-electrical power system, ROTOBOOST's Marine Hydrogen production technology, and PowerCell's Marine System 200 hydrogen fuel cell will play central roles in the research. ROTOBOOST's CEO highlights the advantages of their Marine Hydrogen technology in producing solid carbon during hydrogen generation, making LNG a viable compliant fuel for the future. The project seeks to explore emerging emissions reduction technologies to drive decarbonisation in the shipping industry through sustainable solutions.
