The International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) has released a new report outlining the anticipated global hydrogen demand leading up to 2050. The report identifies South Korea, Japan, and Europe as the primary markets for hydrogen, signaling a significant shift towards green energy sources. According to the report, meeting the projected 30 million tonnes of annual global green hydrogen demand would require the addition of up to 411 hydrogen vessels or up to 500 vessels if ammonia is used as a transport medium. This demand also translates to the equivalent electricity production of South and Central America combined. Guy Platten, the ICS secretary-general, stressed the necessity for a fivefold increase in hydrogen-based fuel sources to achieve a net-zero emissions scenario by 2050. One crucial highlight of the report is the substantial variability in potential hydrogen demand, with industry expected to drive a significant portion. In this landscape, the shipping sector emerges as a key facilitator of the hydrogen economy, poised to contribute to its expansion and development. Notably, ongoing efforts are directed towards enhancing the technology for liquid hydrogen carriers, as exemplified by the Suiso Frontier, the world's only trading liquid hydrogen carrier with a 1,250 cu m storage tank designed for transporting hydrogen at -253°C.
