Abstract
The development and technical aspects of a hydrogen fuel cell power system and accompanying hydrogen fuel storage intended for maritime applications is presented. The fuel cells are proton exchange membrane (PEM) type and the power unit has a nominal net AC power output of 165 kW. The hydrogen storage capacity is ca. 80 kg, at a designed 300 bar maximum storage working pressure. For development, testing and safety reasons the fuel cell power system, the related electrical equipment and the hydrogen storage are constructed in a modular fashion, into two modified sea containers with dedicated compartments for each of these three functions. The system is tested both on land as well as on-board the research vessel Aranda, while operating on the Baltic Sea.
