Innovative energy

Boat and yacht manufacturer Gulf Craft is exploring adding hydrogen technology to its superyacht fleet. The UAE-based boatbuilder, in partnership with H2-Enterprises, says it is investigating the feasibility of a zero-emissions Majesty yacht, which could be powered by an innovative LOHC (liquid organic hydrogen carrier) energy system.

H2-Enterprises, a global hydrogen enabler and energy storage solutions company headquartered in New York City, USA, has been working on this technology for the last 13 years and has now reached the stage of development to power a superyacht.

“We are excited to embark on a significant new milestone in the evolution of luxury yachting and our path to sustainability,” says Gulf Craft chair, Mohammed Hussein Alshaali. “Gulf Craft has always been driven by a deep commitment to innovation and responsible stewardship of our oceans.

“Exploring the technology and potential partnership with H2-Enterprises, who are a pioneering force in the hydrogen and renewable energy sector, allows us to lead in a new era of emissions-free luxury, where opulence and sustainability intertwine seamlessly.”
