Powering the Rijksrederij fleet with green methanol fuel cells

This research was performed with the goal of giving insight if the Rijksrederij is able to operate part of their fleet on renewable methanol and fuel cells, in order to work towards their goal of operating with net zero CO2 emissions by 2030. This prompted a research question that focussed on both the renewable methanol supply and the technical...

Using renewable methanol, PEM fuel cells and on-board carbon capture to reduce well-to-propeller ship emissions

This paper gives an overview of research that was carried out with the purpose of gaining insight whether renewable methanol, fuel cells and on-board carbon capture can be used to reduce the CO2 emissions of part of a fleet consisting of various (governmental) work ships, using methanol produced from waste biomass, excess wind energy and...
