Description
The Digital Workshop "Ammonia as a green shipping fuel: challenges and opportunities" will take place on 23 September 10:00 a.m. CEST.
Ammonia is going to play a pivotal role in decarbonizing the global maritime industry, but no vessels of any size today are equipped to use the fuel. The goal of the digital workshop is to set up a discussion about both the opportunities and challenges, involving subjects at the forefront of this innovative path.

About ShipFC project
FCHJU-funded project, ShipFC, will install the world’s first high-power ammonia fuel cell on a vessel, with the ultimate goal of demonstrating the feasibility of ammonia fuel cells for ocean going vessels and long sea voyages: effectively opening up a completely new option for zero-emission shipping and creating the starting point to build up the market for zero-carbon fuels.
