Maritime policy bulletin 002 covers safe hydrogen storage, which will be critical across all transport vectors as well as maritime and in refuelling stations. This summary of the innovative Microleaks-No-Burst technology for hydrogen storage developed by our

"Abstract On-dock railway operation areas at sea-rail container ports play a crucial role in transferring containers between maritime and rail transportation systems. The operational efficiency of these areas depends on synchronizing rail and yard c

"Abstract The paper considers the concept of efficient liquid hydrogen (LH2) refuelling at hydrogen refuelling stations (HRS), presents modelling approach and 3D transient CFD simulation results. The concept is based on the advantages of transforming hy

There are insufficient financial incentives to stimulate investments in eco-ships (where engines are more fuel efficient) risking missing emissions reduction targets. In this research by Clean Maritime Research Hub's Dr Ioannis Moutzouris and colleagues the

"Abstract Hydrogen refuelling is imperative for the emerging market of hydrogen vehicles. The pressure control valve (PCV) at the hydrogen refuelling station (HRS) plays a major role in ensuring that hydrogen delivery to the vehicle follows the prescrib

"Abstract Shipping companies face the trilemma of investing in cheaper but more polluting conventional vessels, in more expensive but eco-friendly ones or postponing their investment. We quantify the price premium paid for eco-friendly vessels and inves

"Abstract Cryogenic carbon-neutral fuels are potential alternatives as future marine fuels, releasing waste cryogenic energy during regasification and waste thermal energy during combustion. Organic Rankine Cycles (ORCs), using flammable hydrocarbon wor

"Abstract Maritime shipping emissions have been identified as a remaining issue and have been the key focus for a decade. This study systematically summarises the Imperatives, Challenges, Strategic Regulatory and R&D Measures based on our investigations and

"Abstract An accurate determination of minimum ignition energy (MIE) is essential for assessing electrostatic hazards and characterising potential for occurrence of combustion in flammable mixtures. This is of utmost importance for hydrogen-air mixtures chara

"Abstract This paper provides a comprehensive review of the literature related to seaport decarbonisation by combining the academic literature with case studies, industrial reports, newsletters, and domain knowledge. Through the literature review, the emission
