Innovation funding

A system that provides electricity to vessels docked at port, eliminating the need for them to run auxiliary engines or generators, thereby reducing emissions.

The process used to produce green hydrogen by splitting water using electricity.

A type of engine that burns hydrogen as fuel, similar to traditional internal combustion engines but with challenges related to fuel storage and efficiency.

A system at the Port of Leith that supplies clean electricity to docked tugboats using hydrogen fuel generated from treated wastewater. The system combines water treatment, electrolysis, and hydrogen-powered generators to eliminate reliance on diesel auxiliary engines.

A government competition round under the UK SHORE program designed to fund demonstration projects for clean maritime technologies, including the HI-FIVED hydrogen shipping project.

Technology that splits treated water into hydrogen and oxygen through electrolysis to create clean fuel for the shore power system.

Technology that converts effluent from wastewater treatment plants into reusable water for hydrogen production with minimal electricity consumption and carbon emissions.

A generator that uses hydrogen fuel to produce clean electricity for shore power supply to docked vessels, with water vapor as the only emission.
