Insights
Ballard secures major 6.4 MW fuel cell order for maritime vessels, validating commercial viability in a critical decarbonization market.
This 6.4 MW order from eCap Marine represents a significant commercial milestone for Ballard in the maritime sector. The deal for 32 FCwave鈩�-200 kW engines to power two Samskip vessels demonstrates growing commercial traction for hydrogen fuel cells in shipping - one of the hardest-to-decarbonize transportation segments.
The order's scale is particularly noteworthy, described as "one of the largest marine fuel cell engine orders in history." This suggests Ballard is successfully moving beyond pilot projects to larger commercial deployments. For context, maritime applications require extensive power capacity and reliable performance under harsh conditions, making this a demanding use case that validates Ballard's technology.
Strategic partnerships are driving adoption here. This continues a collaboration with eCap Marine that began in 2021, indicating successful prior engagements. Samskip's position as "one of the largest multimodal European operators" provides Ballard with a high-profile reference customer in commercial shipping.
The DNV type-approval for Ballard's FCwave鈩� module represents a critical regulatory achievement, removing a key adoption barrier by ensuring compliance with international maritime safety standards. Additionally, ENOVA's support (Norway's government agency for energy initiatives) demonstrates how public policy is accelerating hydrogen adoption in hard-to-electrify sectors.
This order targets specific commercial routes between Norway and the Netherlands, providing a real-world validation case for fuel cells in regular shipping operations rather than just demonstration projects. The delivery timeline spanning 2025-2026 indicates a medium-term revenue impact rather than an immediate financial catalyst.
The 32 FCwave鈩�-200 kW engines will be integrated into green marine propulsion systems by eCap Marine and power two vessels in Samskip's fleet to decarbonize routes between
"We're proud to expand our partnership with eCap Marine and Samskip with one of the largest marine fuel cell engine orders in history," said Marty Neese, President & CEO, Ballard Power Systems. "Deploying our fuel cell engines on these two Samskip vessels provides a critical validation point for the use of PEM fuel cell propulsion for maritime applications."
Lars Ravens, Managing Director of eCap Marine stated, "Our continued collaboration with Ballard is central to our mission to decarbonize marine transport. This latest order exemplifies our shared commitment to operational excellence and environmental stewardship. Together, we are delivering a clean propulsion solution that meets the rigorous demands of long-haul marine operations."
Ballard's FCwave鈩� is the world's first DNV type-approved fuel cell module for marine applications, ensuring compliance with international maritime safety and design standards. This order is supported by ENOVA,
