Last week, Sea Green Engineering participated in a site visit and onboard survey of the ANTE TOPIC bulk carrier at Port Morski Police, Poland, as part of the ongoing activities within the EU-funded GAMMA project.

The survey and technical meetings marked a key milestone in the development of the project, which aims to retrofit a bulk vessel with a next-generation hydrogen-based fuel cell system capable of generating 1 MW of clean electric power.

The innovative system will use green ammonia and biomethanol as primary fuels. These will be converted into hydrogen through ammonia cracking and methanol reforming processes. After purification, the hydrogen will be used to power fuel cells, replacing the vessel’s conventional auxiliary diesel generators.

To further enhance the system’s environmental performance, part of the hydrogen production process will be powered by renewable energy sources, such as solar panels, significantly reducing overall emissions.

Sea Green Engineering is proud to contribute to this ambitious project by providing specialized expertise in structural integration, vessel stability, and seakeeping analysis, supporting the safe and effective deployment of these advanced technologies on board.

We are pleased to play an active role in this important step toward decarbonising maritime transport and demonstrating the feasibility of hydrogen-based auxiliary systems for commercial shipping.
