About SH2IPDRIVE

SH2IPDRIVE, (Sustainable Hydrogen Integrated Propulsion Drives) is a Dutch project consortium focused on maritime hydrogen applications.

SH2IPDRIVE consists of a diverse group of 25 companies and knowledge institutions from across the maritime sector working together on a broad and ambitious innovation project to accelerate the introduction of hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier for ships. The total project fund of 34 million EUR affords extensive research and development into multiple avenues for hydrogen application and accelerates the move to zero-emission shipping.

SH2IPDRIVE is laying the foundation for a strong maritime hydrogen economy in the Netherlands, which is already gaining a leading position in hydrogen worldwide. The results of SH2IPDRIVE align entirely with the objectives formulated in the Dutch government’s Maritime Master Plan, aimed at strengthening the position of the Netherlands as a world leader in sustainable shipbuilding and shipping. The project activities cover the full scope of hydrogen research and development and are organised in nine different work packages including Bunker and Storage Systems, Hydrogen Carriers, Fuel Cells, Data Collection and System Validation, System Integration, Modular Testing, Ship Design and Safety.

The main objective of SH2IPDRIVE is the development of reliable, safe, standardised, scalable and cost-effective solutions for zero-emission propulsion and energy systems for hydrogen-based ships.
