Bureau Veritas Marine & Offshore (BV) is to participate in NAVHYS, the European research project dedicated to advancing the use of liquid hydrogen (LH2) in maritime applications. Funded by the Clean Hydrogen Partnership, NAVHYs was launched by the Ariane Group, building on its experience of using liquid hydrogen as a fuel for Ariane rockets.
As we reported earlier, (see story) NAVHYS aims to develop innovative solutions for storing and using liquid hydrogen (LH2) as an energy carrier for maritime transport, with the initial focus on hydrogen fueled SOVs.
Working closely with ArianeGroup, BV has played a key role in developing the project proposal and consortium structure and contributed its expertise in safety, rule development, and classification to support innovation in hydrogen-fuelled vessels. In particular, NavHyS focuses on one of the most technically ambitious aspects of hydrogen deployment at sea: the use of below-deck Type C LH2 tanks as marine fuel for service operation vessels (SOVs).
