THE WATER-GO-ROUND
When launched in mid-2019 the Water-Go-Round will be the first fuel cell vessel in the US and the first commercial fuel cell ferry in the world. The completion of this project represents a global paradigm shift for marine vessel power. Built by GGZEM and its partners, this vessel will serve as a demonstration to the commercial and regulatory community at large. Performance will be independently measured by Sandia National Laboratories.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
H2 tank array 264 kg, 250 bar compressed gas, up to 2 full days operation
2x 300 kW (400 hp) shaft motors (1 in each demi-hull)
100 kWh batteries in hulls provide boost power to achieve 22 knots
70' Overall Length, Aluminum hull, 84 passengers with high visibility window arrangement
Funding for the CARB grant for the country’s first zero-emission ferry comes from California Climate Investments, a statewide program that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy and improving public health and the environment — particularly in disadvantaged communities.
