Fuel Cell
Barrus has partnered with Bramble Energy to deliver a hydrogen-powered fuel/cell battery hybrid narrowboat and use it as a test vessel to probe the commercialisation of hydrogen technologies in the marine sector.
Barrus is leveraging its WhisperPower sustainable energy storage systems and smart power electronics to provide a fully integrated power system in the vessel. As well as providing a mechanism to collaborate with the key players within the world of hydrogen power.
The Vessel will be driven by an experimental 15KW motor which will hopefully become a part of the company's Shire engine range. It will be powered by a hydrogen-electric series hybrid powertrain consisting of a 22Kwh battery system (Whisper Power) and a 10KW hydrogen fuel cell (Bramble). Charging for the system will also be subsidised by 12 solar panels on the vessel's roof.
