TECO 2030 starts second EU Horizon project

This ship, tailored for operation in the Adriatic Sea's delicate marine ecosystem, is a testament to the project's commitment to environmental preservation and zero emission waterborne transport.

“This project further enables our efforts to showcase how fuel cells and hydrogen can be a large contributor to decarbonise and eliminate harmful emissions of waterborne transport around the world,” said Tore Enger, Group CEO, TECO 2030.

Key activities in the project include the design and construction of the ship, the development of comprehensive hydrogen distribution, storage, and bunkering solutions, and rigorous testing through sea trials to ensure compliance with certification standards. The project also places a strong emphasis on environmental impact, with thorough emissions assessment, environmental performance studies, and risk and safety evaluations.

Advanced digital technologies will play a crucial role, with the development of digital twins for monitoring, control, simulation, and predictive maintenance solutions augmented by augmented reality systems. These technologies will be rigorously tested and optimised for use by shipowners, operators, shipyards, and engineering firms.

“I'm excited to share that we've successfully secured our second Horizon Europe project. Achieving a perfect record in our EU project proposals is truly remarkable. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated partners and our in-house team for their exceptional proposal writing efforts,” said Fredrik Aarskog, Director of Business Development, TECO 2030.
