Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) has declared its intention to one day fit all newbuildings with fuel cells to meet decarbonisation targets.
The South Korean shipbuilder has taken another step down this road by announcing a deal with New York-listed Bloom Energy to design and develop such vessels.
"By signing this joint development agreement, SHI has a plan to develop eco-friendly ships that will lead the future of the industry," said Haeki Jang, vice president of shipbuilding and drilling sales engineering at SHI.
