Norwegian shipowner Ostensjo Group is aiming to develop a revolutionary new propulsion system based on loading oil with hydrogen.
The offshore vessel company said it is teaming up with Germany's Hydrogenious LOHC Technologies for the project.
The plan is to use liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHC), organic compounds that can absorb and release hydrogen through chemical reactions.
These will be combined with fuel cells for zero-emissions shipping with a much higher energy density than compressed hydrogen.
