Hi,

I recently read an article in the august issue of Boat International concerning a very interesting design by Berkeley March called Project H115. Not only is the exterior design of this vessel extraordinary, but her proposed means of propulsion is using green hydrogen energy to give unlimited range 40 degrees either side of the equator.
The article stated, and i quote: 'One of the key features of the H115 is the innovative propulsion system, which would use green hydrogen energy to give unlimited range 40 degrees either side of the equator'. Now this is pretty much what i said above, but later on in the article it berkeley march said: 'I'm currently working on a 32m using more conventional hydrogen production [using electrolysis] for a Belgian outfit...'.

This then suggests that the hydrogen production method is something other than electrolysis, and that brings me to the question i had in mind: How does it produce it's hydrogen?

Berkeley March said that he had done a lot of research into this and i have tried to obtain as much information on the field myself as i have been able to, but i still have no idea what kind of hydrogen production device Berkeley March had in mind.
I would really apreciate all replies that can help me figure this out.

Kind regards,
George Nordahl
