HYON has signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with Northern Xplorer AS for the implementation of hydrogen fueling technology in Northern Xplorer’s zero-emission and energy-self-sufficient cruise vessel MM140.
According to HYON, the hydrogen fueling technology is expecting a final investment decision is made by Northern Xplorer and that an order for the vessel is placed with a shipyard.
This is an important step towards the implementation of hydrogen fueling technology in an industry that needs to find emission-free fueling solutions. Northern Xplorer is pioneering zero-emissions cruising, and we are excited about the opportunity to contribute to the realization of their ambition
said Jørn Lindtvedt, CEO of HYON.
In addition to the implementation of fueling technology, the LOI enables a collaboration between the two companies, in which HYON will contribute to the development of a fueling procedure for Northern Xplorer.
“he collaboration with Northern Xplorer will allow us to gain valuable insights into the specific needs of the cruise ship industry’s entry into zero-emission fueling, while also further developing our hydrogen fueling technology
added Mr. Lindtvedt.
