A month ago, the DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics in Stuttgart successfully launched the operation of the NAUTILUS Genset demonstrator after a three-month-long and complex commissioning process. 🌟 This innovative propulsion system integrates a 60-kW Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) with a 20-kW Li-ion battery and features an advanced emissions measurement facility. ⛴️ The demonstrator serves as a testbed for performance validation, paving the way for future scaled-up onboard energy systems capable of delivering 5 to 60 MW of power, depending on vessel size and type. 🌍 Designed to meet the energy demands of propulsion, maneuvering, and hotel amenities on cruise ships, this cutting-edge system also achieves significant reductions in emissions. Developed by a consortium of European leaders - including ship operators, shipyards, technology providers, and research institutions - NAUTILUS exemplifies the strength of EU-wide collaboration in delivering fully integrated design solutions for sustainable shipping. 🎥 Watch the timelapse video showcasing the entire assembly process 👇 #NAUTILUS_2020 #SOFC #EmissionReduction #MaritimeInnovation #SustainableShipping

It was great to share and discuss the progress made in the project! Looking forward to the next steps. ⛴️⛴️⛴️

EH NIM Decarbonising the seas requires teamwork, deep technical & sectoral know-how & an innovating spirit. These are the reasons we are delighted to partner with Nederlandse Innovatie Maatschappij (NIM BV) in advancing zero-emission solutions in the maritime sector. Our signed MOU will focus on adapting and standardizing fuel cell systems to meet the unique operational and safety requirements of maritime vessels, paving the way for clean, efficient energy solutions that can be widely deployed. “The maritime sector is ripe for disruptive decarbonisation, which can only be met by joining strong technology solutions with deep sector experience and integration capabilities. Partnering with NIM enables us to more effectively deploy marine FC systems across a wide-range of vessels” - Mardit Matian, EH Group Founder. “With this partnership, we found a solid basis for the next step in sustainable energy transition in shipping. With EH GROUP 's EH-TRACE hydrogen fuel cell system and the knowledge of system integration by NIM we are ready to speed-up the change in power management applications on board of vessels.” - Mark Freriks, CSO. Our joint collaboration aligns with increasing demand within the maritime industry for green alternatives to traditional propulsion systems, a movement that is crucial to meeting international climate targets.

#Throwback 😊Last week, AMON Project EU was at the European Hydrogen Week with our #project partners FBK-SE | The Centre for Sustainable Energy | Bruno Kessler Foundation and EFCF - European Electrolyser and Fuel Cell Forum !!

#EFCF2025 – The Scientific Advisory Committee A Scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) has been formed to evaluate and structure the technical program of the #EFCF2025. This panel exercises full scientific independence in all technical matters, and ensures that presentations are of consistently high quality, yet understandable for participants with various backgrounds and expertise. The SAC consists of 34 TOP experts, who started their work with the submission of the first paper. 📧 Submit your abstract before 30 November 2024 - Last days! 📌 More about the call for papers and the submission process on www.EFCF.com/C4P ℹ️ Instructions for authors and abstracts are available on https://lnkd.in/eqaJXeHu #EFCF20245 #C4P #electrolyser #fuelcell #MembraneReactors #sofc #soe #somr

The NAUTILUS Genset project recently reached a major milestone with the launch of its groundbreaking low-emission maritime power system at DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics Stuttgart. It is designed to be adaptable for various ships with capacities from 1,000 to over 5,000 passengers and can meet a ship’s energy needs from propulsion, maneuvering, and from hotel loads to full power, while offering 30% of reduction in CO₂ and 95% reduction in non-CO₂ pollutants emissions. A follow-up project meeting highlighted the NAUTILUS system’s potential for sustainable shipping and outlined the remaining steps, including performance testing, emissions analysis, and health impact assessments as we progress toward the project’s conclusion at the end of 2024. Many thanks to Asif Ansar for his excellent leadership and to the NAUTILUS team for their dedication! 👏 Sabine Riek, Joakim Pagels, Lindert van Biert, Jan Vanherle, Alessandro Sissinio, Amandine Thomas, Markéta Šimková, Cem Ünlübayir, Torsten Hacker, Berend van Veldhuizen, Amogh Amladi, Daniel Sahnen, Santiago Salas Ventura, Johannes Rex, Reddy Devalapalli, Dr. Fabian Grimm, Jari Pennanen, Stefan Diethelm   More: https://lnkd.in/exEfciFa #NAUTILUS_2020 #SOFC #EmissionReduction #MaritimeInnovation #SustainableShipping #Horizon2020  

🌠 We did it! 🌠 First of its kind maritime genset is commissioned - validating the saving of Greenhouse Gases by 30% and non-CO2 by more than 95% with reduced noise and vibration. On October 29, we celebrated the launch of the NAUTILUS Genset demonstrator at DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics, Germany. This groundbreaking maritime power system integrates SOFC fuel cells and battery technology to transform long-haul passenger shipping. Funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 program and coordinated by the German Aerospace Center (DLR), the project aims to replace traditional internal combustion engines, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and eliminating harmful exhaust emissions. We set ourselves a goal in over four years of team work with 15 partners and dedicated lead to the launch.
