Ammonia Marine Engine CF08_2 Project duration: 04/2021–03/2024 Partners: Aim of Project: On the way to implementing the energy transition, shipping must also be transformed into an emission-free and climate-neutral area of mobility. The use of “green” ammonia as a carbon-free fuel offers the potential to contribute to achieving this goal for future shipping. Against this…
In August, our joint project “Development of a concept for the emission-free operation of an inland waterway vessel with ammonia fuel” with the partners ZBT, DST, DNV, HOST, ISV, IKEM, Tamsen Maritim and Weiße Flotte, with a funding volume of € 1.2 million by BMBF WIR! started. The overall goal of the CF08 project line…
Marine propulsion CF09 Project costs: 605 T€ Project period: 10/2020–10/2022 Partners: Objective: The use of ammonia as a new energy source on the Baltic Sea requires a detailed consideration of the Baltic Sea countries, their port structures and shipping connections with northern Germany. In addition to developing potential ammonia-based ferry lines in the Baltic Sea…
Marine propulsion CF08_1 Project costs: 1.279 T€ Project period: 09/2020–08/2022 Partners: Objective: The objective of CF08 projects is to outfit an inland vessel as a ‘test vehicle’ that uses an ammonia-powered internal combustion engine, a process that includes the installation of the necessary tank, safety and peripheral systems onboard the vessel. The ammonia-powered propulsion system…
Marine propulsion CF07 Project costs: 1.470 T€ Project period: 09/2020–08/2022 Partners: Objective: Sailing yachts have always used wind for propulsion. Today, the interior fittings offered by most modern sailing yachts meet high standards and use electrical energy for navigation, safety, secondary propulsion and auxiliary equipment onboard the ship. This energy is provided by fossil-based primary…
