The Hydrogen Council, a global initiative of leading energy, transport and industry companies and Energy Observer, the first hydrogen vessel to travel around the world that emits no greenhouse gases, fine particles or noise, have entered into strategic partnership to advance hydrogen technologies.
Together, the two groups will help accelerate the energy transition by making wide-scale, decarbonised maritime transportation a reality.
Maritime transport currently emits around 940 million tonnes of CO2 annually and is responsible for roughly 2.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions. This could increase by between 50% and 250% respectively by 2050, according to the International Maritime Organisations (IMO).
“The Hydrogen Council is proud to partner with Energy Observer. We support and are inspired by their core mission of using hydrogen to decarbonise marine transport,” said Pierre-Etienne Franc, Co-Secretary of the Hydrogen Council and Vice-President of Air Liquide’s Hydrogen Energy World Business Unit.
