The study is essentially divided into three main blocks: A) Technology B) Regulations C) Safety Chapter A, corresponding to the first block, provides The ranking was weighted for importance, in each a description of the different fuel cell technologies of the parameters above, based on specific criteria and an overview of major maritime fuel cell projects used in the context of the present study.

Consecutively, Chapter B gives an overview technologies ranked by this exercise to be the most of current applicable standards, regulations and promising for marine use is the solid oxide fuel cell, guidelines for bunkering, on-board storage and the PEMFC and the high temperature PEMFC. Short distribution of fuel as well as use of on-board fuel descriptions of these technologies are given below. cell installations. Finally, Chapter C provides a safety assessment, with the analysis of the safety challenges for maritime fuel cell applications, exemplified by a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) RoPax vessel and a Gas Carrier, based on the most promising fuel cell types identified in Chapter A of The PEM fuel cell is a mature technology that has the study, namely the PEM, HT-PEM and SOFC. been successfully used both in marine and other high energy applications.

Harbour Business Forum On-Site Liaison: Paul Zimmerman, Convener of Designing Hong Kong Harbour District Submitted by: Brian Berard Eric Rosendahl Jarrad Fallon Lucas Scotta Santiago Lora Alexander Wong Alexander Muir Becky Yang Submitted to: Project Advisor: Creighton Peet, WPI Professor Project Co-advisor: Andrew Klein, WPI Assistant Professor Project Co-advisor: Kent Rissmiller, WPI Professor Abstract Victoria Harbour is one of Hong Kong‟s greatest assets; however, the balance between recreational and commercial uses of the harbour favours commercial uses. Our report, prepared for Designing Hong Kong Ltd., examines this imbalance from the marine perspective. We audited the 50km of waterfront twice and conducted interviews with major stakeholders to assess necessary improvements to land/water interfaces and to provide recommendations on improvements to the land/water interfaces with the goal of making Victoria Harbour a truly “living” harbour. ii Acknowledgements Our team would like to thank the many people that helped us over the course of this project. First, we would like to thank our sponsor, Paul Zimmerman, for his help and dedication throughout our project and for providing all of the resources and contacts that we required.

As you would expect in a place with so many islands, water activities are the life-blood of Bermuda. We are excited to welcome old friends and new to our shores this summer. With Bermuda hosting the 35th America’s Cup, welcoming the inaugural Antigua Bermuda Race and old friends the Marion Bermuda Race on their 40th anniversary, and the visit of the Rendezvous 2017 Tall Ships Regatta, it promises to be a truly spectacular summer of sail. Bermuda is excited to welcome old friends and new coming to our shores this summer. We are shaping up to have a truly magnificent summer of sailing, with Bermuda hosting the 35th America’s Cup, welcoming the inaugural Antigua Bermuda Race, and welcoming back old friends the Marion Bermuda Race and the Rendezvous 2017 Tall Ships Regatta. To be prepared for the influx of visiting vessels, the Bermuda Government has implemented a number of new, temporary policies over the period from April 26 to July 31, 2017. Importantly, these policies apply to ALL incoming vessels – whether you are here for the America’s Cup, visiting the rest of our island, or just passing through.

  • The Future of Hydrogen Seizing Today’S Opportunities
    The Future of Hydrogen Seizing today’s opportunities Report prepared by the IEA for the G20, Japan June 2019 The Future of Hydrogen Seizing today’s opportunities Report prepared by the IEA for the G20, Japan The Future of Hydrogen Foreword Foreword This is a critical year for hydrogen. It is enjoying unprecedented momentum around the world and could finally be set on a path to fulfil its longstanding potential as a clean energy solution. To seize this opportunity, governments and companies need to be taking ambitious and real- world actions now. We are very grateful to the government of Japan for its request under its presidency of the G20 that the International Energy Agency (IEA) prepare this important and timely report. Our study provides an extensive and independent assessment of hydrogen that lays out where things stand now; the ways in which hydrogen can help to achieve a clean, secure and affordable energy future; and how we can go about realising its potential. To help to get things moving, we have identified the most promising immediate opportunities to provide a springboard for the future. As the world’s leading energy authority covering all fuels and all technologies, the IEA is ideally placed to help to shape global policy on hydrogen. The rigorous analysis in this report was conducted in close collaboration with governments, industry and academia. This study on hydrogen is part of a comprehensive approach the IEA is taking to the global energy system. Last month, we published a report on the role of nuclear power in a clean energy system.
