Swedish fuel cell firm PowerCell has been contracted to supply systems that will power two Norwegian-funded liquid hydrogen cargo ships.

The SEK 50m ($5.2m) contract will see PowerCell supply 4MW-worth of its 225kW marine fuel cell units to start-up LH2 Shipping, which recently secured NOK 344.4m ($34.8m) in funding from Norway’s state-owned climate investor to develop two vessels.
