World's First Battery‑Hydrogen Tanker Launches in Lithuania
Lithuania just launched the world’s first commercial tanker (42 meters) to replace diesel with 100% electricity from batteries and hydrogen fuel cells, where the hydrogen is produced on the dock from WindWaterSolar. The ship can run for 10 hours and is collecting the sewage and sludge from other ships. https://t.co/RY3zTum83i
