Abstract
The maritime sector is a significant contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions, necessitating urgent action to mitigate its carbon footprint. Hydrogen fuel cells have emerged as a promising solution for marine propulsion, offering the potential to reduce emissions and enhance energy efficiency. This paper presents a thorough examination of the challenges and opportunities linked to hydrogen fuel cells in marine contexts. It delves into the environmental advantages, such as emission reductions and enhanced efficiency, while also discussing hydrogen's role in bolstering energy security and diminishing reliance on fossil fuels. Regulatory incentives propelling hydrogen fuel cell adoption in shipping are highlighted. Safety aspects are addressed, emphasising the importance of safe handling, storage, and transportation, along with technical strategies for ensuring safety. The paper also tackles the hurdles in scaling up these solutions for widespread implementation.
