Norway's Enova has allocated $49 million for two innovative projects focusing on the development of bulk carriers powered by alternative fuels. In Bergen, LH2 Shipping received funding to build two 5,000 DWT bulk carriers using liquid hydrogen. These vessels, designed for emission-free operation, will utilize fuel cells, batteries, and a wind propulsion system, with plans to operate on short-sea shipping routes starting in Q1 2029. A separate project by Amon Maritime involves constructing Capesize and Kamsarmax bulk carriers powered by ammonia, aiming to decarbonize deep-sea shipping with a focus on environmental impact and commercial viability. Both initiatives highlight Norway's dedication to sustainable maritime transport and the advancement of green energy technologies, positioning the country as a key player in the global shift towards cleaner shipping practices.
