Pherousa inks conditional supply contract for 6 x 12MW fuel cells

The total supply agreement is “subject to financing of PGS’ newbuild vessels” and “reaching a final contract of supply including closing price negotiations according to industry standards”, the fuel cell developer noted.

The Motorship notes that while TECO 2030 expects commercial production of the fuel cell system to begin at end-2024 at TECO 2030’s Innovation Center in Narvik, Norway, testing of TECO 2030’s first 400kW fuel cell at AVL’s test facility in Graz, Austria has not yet begun at the time of writing.  

The first fuel cell and cracker shipset is estimated to start shipment to the shipyard by early-2026, with delivery in mid-2026. 

Each vessel will be outfitted with a 12 MW fuel cell system in combination with a Pherousa Green Technologies AS’ (PGT) ammonia to hydrogen cracker. The scope of delivery for TECO 2030 will be worth approximately EUR 23 million per vessel. The delivery for TECO 2030 includes a complete system of fuel cells installed on a skid solution as well as power and automation equipment.

The first vessel is targeted for delivery Q1 2027.
