New e-fuels project to make international shipping climate neutral

Sea Green Engineering is pleased to announce its participation in the European GAMMA project, a groundbreaking initiative aimed at making maritime transport more sustainable. With a total investment of €17 million, this five-year project brings together leading companies and researchers from across Europe to advance green shipping solutions.

The GAMMA project is dedicated to transforming ocean transport by implementing innovative technologies that reduce environmental impact. One of its primary objectives is the upgrade of a 60,000-tonne deadweight bulk carrier, incorporating cutting-edge energy solutions to align with international climate targets.

This initiative is closely aligned with the objectives set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to decarbonize the shipping industry. By collaborating with 16 European partners, the GAMMA project aims to make long-distance maritime transport more sustainable through the integration of advanced fuel technologies.

A key component of the project is the installation of an advanced fuel system designed to convert ammonia and green methanol into hydrogen. This hydrogen will be utilized to generate electricity through a fuel cell, significantly reducing reliance on conventional auxiliary generators powered by fossil fuels.

Through its involvement in this initiative, Sea Green Engineering reinforces its commitment to sustainable maritime solutions, contributing to the global effort to reduce emissions and promote cleaner shipping practices.
