As an innovator of hydrogen-powered maritime solutions, Tore Enger, Group CEO of TECO2030, said the companies will be able to provide zero-emissions energy solutions to the world.

Enger, said, “I am pleased to announce our supplier agreement with SinoHyKey in Vancouver and looking forward to a great partnership for many years. Together we will be able to provide zero-emissions energy solutions to the world.”

TECO 2030 has announced progress across several projects, including its plans to retrofit a tanker to run on hydrogen under a partnership with Shell, UAC, SKAB, Neste, and the UiT, which receives €5m of European Union funding through the Horizon Europe programme.

“SinoHyKey is very excited to partner with TECO 2030 to demonstrate the potential of the hydrogen fuel cell in marine and other heavy duty applications – not just in Europe, but across the globe,” commented, Dr. Yuquan Zou, CEO of SHK. “SHK MEAs destined for the TECO 2030 project employ a state-of-the-art design which offers superb power density, durability, and cost efficiency.”

Speaking at H2 View’s Mobility Snap Summit in November (2022), Dipak Mistry, Director of Commerical Partnerships told viewers that fuel cell technologies could play a key role in the future of maritime.

Mistry said, “Advanced fuel cell technologies provide a much higher efficiency, they are fuel flexible, so you can use the technology today with available fuels and later transition to future fuels,” telling the summit fuel cells offer a “no regrets solution.”

A Successful Ecosystem for Green Hydrogen – Iceland

It is becoming ever clearer that the entire green hydrogen ecosystem requires alignment. Hydrogen’s potential, performance, and safety are proven. Green hydrogen is widely accepted as a core pathway to Net Zero, yet the key levers in the transition are not yet in-sync.

For these reasons, H2 View is launching An Ecosystem for Green Hydrogen, a two and a half day summit in Reykjavík, Iceland on February 28 to March 2, 2023, devoted to thought leadership, insights, and actionable takeaways for the green hydrogen ecosystem.

In a world full of distractions and technical overload, we need inspiring places to refresh our minds and bodies. The power of Iceland lies in its nature, culture, and energy. These elements serve as the perfect backdrop for a memorable and effective event at the world renowned Harpa Centre.

The summit promises to tackle all sides of the energy ecosystem, from wind and solar power requirements, through to additionality, water sustainability, electrolyser technologies, and the investment and policy climate. The 2.5 day event is split over six sessions, delegates will hear from speakers representing all strands of the hydrogen value chain in a bid to unravel key issues in the industry, and where it can make some headway.
