ACD01 1000 project moves ahead

Aurelia Green Ship Concept Design has unveiled a new design with 100% hydrogen propulsion. Approval in principle has been issued by Italian class society RINA at SMM in Hamburg.

The new design concept is the ACD01 1000, a roro with electric propulsion using highly compressed hydrogen as fuel. Beyond the green design, the difference is marked by the ship’s hydrogen-based engine system, which can be applied to other ship designs.

The fuel used to operate the vessel is 100% compressed hydrogen while the hybrid propulsion is based on battery and fuel cell power modules not supported by internal combustion engines supplied by petroleum-based conventional fuels.
