Genevos wins Hydrogen Breakthrough Technology of the Year Award

June 19, 2024

Genevos, a leader in the deployment of hydrogen fuel cellpower systems in the maritime sector becomes a third consecutive trade showaward winner, defending its title to the Hydrogen Breakthrough Technology ofthe Year Award since 2023, and following victory of the Propulsion System ofthe Year Award alongside collaborator Transfluid, in 2022.

Hosted by the Electric & Hybrid Marine Expo Europe, thiseighth edition of the Marine Awards featured a live ceremony that honoured theworld’s finest engineers, innovations and products in the electric and hybridmarine arena.

The awards were officiated by a judging panel that boastssome of the world’s leading marine journalists, industry experts and academics,the Electric & Hybrid Marine Awards are among the most sought-afteraccolades within the marine industry.

This year Genevos was recognised for their recently launchedHPM-250, a high-power 250 kW modular fuel cell power system deployed to meetthe growing demands of zero emission coastal and offshore vessels. Thisdevelopment falls in line with the increasing availability of green hydrogen,the strong advances in emissions regulations, and the building environmentalpressure to reduce underwater noise, vibration and pollution for the protectionof marine life.

The HPM-250 responds directly to fleet requirements ofemissions reduction and high reliability by offering a modular, scalablesolution for vessels. For longer-range, deep-sea applications, the power moduleis compatible with methanol and other e-fuel reformers capable of outputtingpurified hydrogen gas, whilst offering power conversion at higher efficienciesthan combustion, thereby reducing operational costs.

Rebecca Sharp, CEO and cofounder of Genevos commented: “Asa young company developing disruptive hydrogen power solutions we are honouredto be recognised for our pioneering innovations and for demonstrating howmarine fuel cells can significantly reduce the impact of commercial operationsacross the maritime sector.”
