Initial design plans for Europe’s first seagoing ferry to be powered by hydrogen fuel cells have been completed.
The drawings show what the HySeas III double-ended vessel that will run on and store energy from renewable sources is likely to look like. It will have a capacity for 120 passengers, in addition to 16 cars or two trucks.
The ferry has been designed to operate on a route between Kirkwall and Shapinsay in Orkney, where hydrogen fuel is generated from wind power.
