"We are delighted to support Greenpeace's mission to showcase innovative solutions for reducing maritime emissions," said Robert Haugen, Managing Director of Hexagon Purus Maritime. "This partnership underscores our commitment to pioneering zero-emission technologies and contributing to a sustainable future for the maritime industry."
Delivery of the hydrogen fuel system is scheduled for 2027.
The Greenpeace vessel, built by Freire Shipyard and designed by Dykstra will harness wind and solar power through over 2000 m2 of sails, battery packs, and solar panels. It will also feature advanced power systems enabling the use of green hydrogen and e-methanol to meet its remaining energy needs.
"Hexagon Purus is committed to actively leading the way in developing zero-emission alternatives,” said Guillermo Freire, Managing Director, Freire Shipyard. “After a comprehensive tender process, we became confident that Hexagon Purus Maritime had the ability and highest technical capabilities to deliver on this exciting project.”
