Coastal Liberty OSV Debuts Containerized Hydrogen-Electric Energy System

17 Oct 2024  by offshore energy   
The 43-meter-long vessel recently set sail in the Wadden Sea, a UNESCO World Heritage site. According to the German clean power solutions provider eCap Marine, the first months of running eCap Marine’s containerized hydrogen-electric energy system proved successful.

In late February 2024, the refitted OSV received class certification by DNV for its newly installed hydrogen system on board.

eCap Marine, contracted by Offshore Service Gesellschaft, engineered the system enabling the vessel to operate without producing emissions using hydrogen and batteries.

Over two years, eCap Marine developed a containerized system featuring two Ballard FCwave (2x200kW) fuel cells, a maritime battery system from Lehmann Marine, a fire extinguishing system, tank units, a custom power management system, and all necessary cooling and safety equipment.
