Energy Observer is a laboratory on an award-winning catamaran designed to challenge the limits of zero-emission technologies such as hydrogen, solar, wind and hydraulic. It aims to demonstrate that the onboard technologies and energy mix are operable in extreme conditions and can be replicated on a larger scale ashore and at sea.
According to a 2019 International Maritime Organization report, maritime transport emits 40 million tonnes of carbon dioxide annually, contributing to 2.5% of global greenhouse gases emissions. If things continue as it is, this figure is expected to increase between 50% and 250% by 2050.
To prevent this, Energy Observer is working with partners to develop and test reliable, sustainable, emission-free, and economically accessible energy solutions.
