You are right (for once) most of the new technology around hydrogen propulsion for marine use is progressing here in Sunnmore, or the nearest surroundings Ferries at Fiskerstrand HSCs at Br. AA. Long liner for Ervik Havfiske This technical discussion is getting a bit ahead of my knowledge, but he…

Here are sortable tables with energy densities of energy storage materials (Wh/kg and Wh/liter): [image] Energy density Energy density is the amount of energy stored in a given system or region of space per unit volume. Colloquially it may also be used for energy per unit mass, though th…

It is not only in Norway that hydrogen is hot topic: [image] commercial fishing boats Is the price of diesel fuel cutting into your bottom line? Let us help. Commercial fishing boats with a supplemental hydrogen generator can give owners an edge over the competition. You can experience …

You are joking, correct? Burning diesel in an IC engine to generate electricity to electrolytically decompose water to pipe the resulting gas mixture (dubbed “HHO” or “Brown’s Gas”) into the engine as fuel is a thermodynamic joke, surely.

Hexagon ASA is a company specializing in gas storage and transport containers made from composite materials: http://www.hexagon.no/ it has it’s HQ here in Aalesund, Norway, but with much of the production in USA. (Lincoln & AGILITY) They are now putting their main effort into storage and transpo…

[image] dbeierl: You are joking, correct? Like the man said, there’s one born every minute.

Well I’m not joking, but maybe the producers are?? I just linked to a company that claim to have a workable hydrogen generator suitable for commercial fishing vessels (among other applications) PS> I don’t think this is what got Mr. Steimler at Ervik excited though.
