About HOPE

The project Hydrogen fuel cells solutions in shipping in relation to other low carbon options – a Nordic perspective (HOPE) addresses how regional shipping in the Nordic region can do the transition to become fossil-free by clarifying the potential role of hydrogen based marine solutions in reducing the Nordic greenhouse gas emissions. HOPE will present a ship concept design where…
