A number of vessels and charging solutions for emission-free maritime transport receive NOK 709 million in support from Enova, the Norwegian state agency announced. The vessels vary from fully electric to ships powered by ammonia and hydrogen. The purpose of the support is to strengthen the use of zero-emission technology at sea.
“We want a faster phase-in of zero-emission technology in maritime transport. This applies to both technologies for the use of hydrogen-based energy carriers and special innovative electrification concepts for vessels. Enova supports those who are leading the way and now we want to increase and speed up the development and use of new and innovative technology that enables emission-free maritime transport”, says Nils Kristian Nakstad, CEO of Enova.
