30MAY2019 - NEWS - Windfarm network planned for renewable fuel bunkering

A network of windfarms could create hydrogen or ammonia fuel to power shortsea shipping according to a new consortium of shipowners and technology companies.

The Zero Emission Energy Distribution at Sea (ZEEDS) consortium – comprising Wärtsilä, Norwegian energy company Equinor, engineering groups Kværner and Aker Solutions and shipowners Greig Star and DFDS – envisions a chain of windfarms creating renewable electricity and then storing that as either hydrogen or ammonia. An automated bunker vessel is proposed to transfer the fuel.
