Companies developing technologies to allow vessels to ‘fly above water’, burn hydrogen and ammonia or use wind for propulsion are sharing a £60m ($73m) green maritime funding pot from the UK Government.
Transport secretary Mark Harper visited Artemis Technologies which is developing the world’s first 100% electric high-speed foiling passenger ferry in Belfast as part of the announcement.
Artemis will use the funding to help take its Multipurpose eFoiler Platform to commercial scale.
