Abstract

The hybrid internal combustion engine-solid oxide fuel cell AmmoniaDrive concept is a single-fuel, high-efficiency, high-tech ship power/propulsion plant solution that will produce no pollutant emissions. It also strikes the right balance between different, relevant ship design considerations. Too good to be true?
