The marine industry faces significant challenges in meeting the ambitious decarbonization targets set by the International Maritime Organization (IMO). In this context, Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) are emerging as a promising alternative to traditional diesel engines. SOFCs are electrochemical devices that generate electrical energy by oxidizing fuel, offering high efficiency, reduced emissions, high-quality heat, and with some modifications, can be operated with a range of low-emission fuels.

On July 1, 2024, our project team met in the beautiful Swiss town of Lucerne. Ahead of the Sustainable Shipping Days (SSD) and European Fuel Cell Forum (EFCF), during which the NAUTILUS project’s results were extensively shared onsite the Convention Centre Lucerne (KKL). We discussed updates on project progress, milestones achieved, upcoming deliverables, and addressed the approaching project closure and its dissemination activities.
The Sustainable Shipping Days 2024 (SSD) conference, organized in partnership with the NAUTILUS project, took place for the first time this year with the participation of many representatives from academia and industry.
