Hyseas III full scale power plant trials

• To be completed by March 2020 in Norway

• 6 off fuel cells and power management system

• Full power operation to prove reliability of equipment and systems

• Acceptance by class for approval to install in a passenger ship

• Same equipment to be installed in Vessel build
