- Kawasaki, Imabari, JMU Team Up for Hydrogen Carrier Project.
- Japan Launches Study on Collaborative Hydrogen Shipbuilding.
- Liquefied Hydrogen Carriers at Core of New Joint Shipbuilding Plan.
Kawasaki Heavy Industries, Ltd., Imabari Shipbuilding Co., Ltd., and Japan Marine United Corporation have kicked off a joint study to look into a collaborative approach for building liquefied hydrogen carriers, reports Kawasaki.
Focus on Efficient Resource Utilisation
The goal of this study is to assess how feasible it is to create a construction model that makes the most of each company’s facilities and workforce. This model is set to pave the way for the development of liquefied hydrogen carriers, following the first commercial vessel currently being designed and built by Kawasaki.
Key Role in Hydrogen Supply Chain
Liquefied hydrogen carriers are expected to play a vital role in creating a global liquefied hydrogen supply chain, making it possible to transport large amounts of hydrogen over long distances efficiently.
Advancing Toward a Carbon-Neutral Future
This initiative will enhance collaboration among the three companies as they strive to commercialise hydrogen transport infrastructure, all while contributing to the larger goal of achieving a carbon-neutral society.
