Corvus Energy has actually introduced its naturally gas-safe aquatic gas cell item, the Corvus Pelican Fuel Cell System.
The system is the outcome of the H2NOR research study job that began in 2021. H2NOR was started by Corvus Energy, Toyota and also various other companions to fast-track the growth and also manufacturing of lasting and also scalable Maritime Hydrogen Fuel Cell Systems.
Corvus claims the outcome of the two-year growth is the best aquatic gas cell system to day. Using the well-proven gas cell innovation from Toyota, made use of in greater than 20,000 autos, and also including the safety and security degree required for aquatic, makes it possible for the Pelican FCS to be set up anywhere onboard a vessel.
The modular and also adaptable system is developed to be Inherently Gas Safe, suggesting that the bordering equipment room is taken into consideration gas safe under all problems. This dramatically lowers the needs of safety and security support group and also air flow, consequently making it possible for much more reliable assimilation of the system inside the ship’s hull.
Geir Bj ørkeli, Chief Executive Officer of Corvus Energy, clarifies: “Our mission is to power a clean future, and through the years, we have been pioneers on a lot of different vessel types. However, batteries cannot take us all the way. If you want to sail zero-emission, you will need to bring clean energy in a different format. We strongly believe hydrogen is the natural choice for shorter and medium-distance routes as this is the most energy-efficient way. The safety level as well as the flexibility and modular design will revolutionize marine power going forward.”
Corvus Energy gas cell systems can be incorporated with Corvus Energy batteries to create a hybrid power system. Energy Storage Systems deal with tons variants, and also gas cell systems execute best at steady tons. Corvus Energy is currently establishing CoPilot, an application for gas cell and also battery systems, support group integrators to ideally disperse power in between gas cell systems and also batteries.
