Fabrum, a New Zealand-based company, has partnered with King Watercraft, known for its premium rigid inflatable boats, to develop the H2Ocean, a revolutionary zero-emission hydrogen-powered boat. This innovative vessel is designed to cater to a range of purposes, from tourism and leisure activities to coastguard services and event support. The H2Ocean, which can accommodate up to 12 individuals, features a unique fuel system that utilizes 18kg of 350 bar hydrogen gas to fuel a fuel cell. This fuel cell then charges a battery bank that powers the boat's two electric stern legs, enabling efficient and environmentally friendly propulsion. Scheduled to undergo sea trials in January 2025, the H2Ocean represents a significant step towards sustainable marine transportation in New Zealand, showcasing the country's commitment to embracing cutting-edge technology for a greener future.
