•Shipping is the most energy-efficient mode of transport.
•However, emissions to air are currently in the focus of society and of IMO
•A continuous reduction of NOx- and SOx-emissions was recently agreed
•A control and later reduction of maritime CO2-emissions is currently discussed
•New technologies are required to enable more environmentally friendly shipping

Motivation - Emissions in Shipping
Fuel Cells in maritime Applications - Challenges, Chances and Experiences - 4th ICHS Conference, 2011-09-12/14, San Francisco, USA | 2011-09-13 | No. 5
Motivation - Costs
• Harbour fees for vessel will be related to the produced ship emissions (e.g. Schweden / Norwegen, Rotterdam)additional costs / discount per BRZ
• High energy prices

Motivation – Regulatory BackgroundInternational Background - SOLAS
SOLAS, Part 1, Chapter II-2, Part B, Regulation 4,
2.1 Limitations in the use of oils as fuel:
„The following limitations shall apply to the use of oil as fuel:
.1 [...] no oil fuel with a flashpoint of less than 60 °C shall be used;
.2 in emergency generators, oil fuel with a flashpoint of not less
than 43 °C may be used;“

Motivation – Regulatory Background International Background - IGF-Code
International Code of Safety for Gas-fuelled Engine Installations in Ships (IGF Code) under development• first part of IGF-Codes came into force 2010-07-01 as a guideline
[MSC 283.(86); GL VI-3-1 - Guidelines for the Use of Gas as Fuel for Ships] (for methane CH4; ICE)
• development of IMO regulation from 2009 for all kind of gases (till approx. 2014; if applicable for all kinds of fuels with a lower flashpoint; all kinds of energy converter)• Chapter 6.12 for Fuel Cell Systems

Incident on FCS ALSTERWASSER
• Fire on board of FCS ALSTERWASSER
Fuel Cells in maritime Applications - Challenges, Chances and Experiences - 4th ICHS Conference, 2011-09-12/14, San Francisco, USA | 2011-09-13 | No. 14
Incident on FCS ALSTERWASSER
• No injured or death people ! • Neither the fuel cell system nor the hydrogen were the reason for the fire
• The fuel cell system was brought in a safe state by the safety system before the fire developed
• The safety concept was working without any limitation
• Despite of the massive damage by the fire, there wasn’t any damage of the fuel cell system or the hydrogen storage !

Summary
• Fuel cell systems for maritime applications are becoming attractive for their low emission potential and their high energy efficiency
• Regulatory requirements will allow the use of fuel cells in shipping in the future
• Fuel cells systems on board of ships can be integrated with the same level of safety like conventional ships
• Fuel cells will be already used in niche markets of the maritime industry
• Previous projects have proven the feasibility of fuel cell systems on board of ships
• Shipping has a high market potential for fuel cell systems
• GL continues to actively drive development of new propulsion systems together with clients
