An innovative fuel cell system based on high-temperature proton exchange membrane (HTPEM) technology from Blue World Technologies is being constructed for testing at the Alfa Laval Test & Training Centre in Aalborg, Denmark. The test installation, which will use methanol as fuel, will explore the technology’s potential as a source of marine auxiliary power. Funded by Danish EUDP (Energy Technology Development and Demonstration Program), the project is a joint effort between fuel cell maker Blue World Technologies, Alfa Laval and vessel owners DFDS, Maersk Drilling and Hafnia.

Alfa Laval will provide Rio Tinto, the world’s largest dry bulk shipper, with the OceanGlide fluidic air lubrication system. This innovative system enhances a ship’s propulsion efficiency and energy savings while sailing. Rio Tinto has selected the Alfa Laval OceanGlide fluidic air lubrication system for one of its bulk carriers, as part of its focus to boost vessel energy efficiency and decarbonize shipping. Recognizing the merits of OceanGlide in the market, the company has chosen to retrofit a Rio Tinto-owned vessel with the system to assess this energy-efficient technology for its fleet.

Nor-Shipping, the leading international forum for the Northern European maritime industry, will take place 3-6 June in Oslo, Norway. Alfa Laval will be present in Hall E to meet with customers and partners at the exhibition. This year, the company will showcase its future-proof solutions, focusing on energy transition, vessel efficiency, ocean protection and digitalization. Alfa Laval invites visitors to Stand E02-15 to explore the latest advancements in its diverse marine portfolio. At the stand, experts will be available to discuss ways of collaborating, covering areas from optimizing the vessel’s efficiency to navigating the energy transition and environmental regulations.
