The Maritime and Aquaculture Professional Academy of Bastia in Corsica has recently welcomed a new training vessel, Alba, equipped with a cutting-edge hydrogen-electric propulsion system. Designed by Mauric and built by Chantier Naval Gatto, the Bureau Veritas-classed vessel stands out with its composite hull, hydrogen-electric propulsion system, and features tailored for training purposes. The vessel's design process involved rigorous risk analyses to integrate the hydrogen technology efficiently. Alba's propulsion system includes Danfoss electric motors, hydrogen generated from solar energy, and Mauric's efficient hull design, enabling impressive speeds and range. The innovative vessel allows for easy configuration changes for different fishing methods, demonstrating versatility and efficiency. Funded entirely by the French government's France Relance initiative post the Covid-19 pandemic, Alba symbolizes a push towards economic recovery through sustainable projects. The vessel not only promotes maritime education but also emphasizes environmental consciousness through its zero-emission operations. With features designed for effective instruction, such as an ergonomic layout, advanced electronics, and spacious areas for practical learning, Alba represents a significant step towards modernizing maritime training. Its cost-effective operations and sustainable practices align with the industry's shift towards eco-friendly solutions, setting a new standard for vocational education in the maritime sector.
