GNW-Adhoc: TECO 2030 and Pherousa Green Shipping sign a supply contract to realize ammonia-based, emission-free ocean shipping

^LYSAKER, Norway, Sept. 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — TECO 2030 (OSE: TECO,

OTCQX: TECFF, ISIN: NO0010887516) and Pherousa Green Shipping AS (PGS)

sign a contract for the delivery of up to six modern,

emission-free Ultramax bulk carriers, each with a capacity of approx

63,000 tons. Each ship will be powered by 12 megawatts (MW) of TECO 2030 fuel cells

be equipped for the main propulsion on board.

The scope of delivery of TECO 2030 is a green package worth approximately EUR 23 million

per ship. The delivery for TECO 2030 includes a complete system of

Fuel cells installed on a skid solution, as well

Power supply and automation devices. The delivery to the shipyard will be

expected to begin in early 2026 and be completed by mid-2026. The

The fuel cell system will be available at our innovation center in Narvik at the end of 2024.

Norway, go into production.

Pherousa Green Shipping 63,000 dwt Ultramax. Design by Deltamarine

A 12 MW fuel cell system will be on board for full propulsion

each of the six ships is used and enables 100% emission-free

Operation. Each ship will have approximately 63,000 tons capacity and the first

Ship is scheduled to be delivered in the first quarter of 2027.

The TECO 2030 fuel cell system is used in combination with an ammonia

Hydrogen splitter installed by Pherousa Green Technologies AS (PGT). The

Loading ammonia and splitting it into hydrogen on board the ship will be the

current problems of hydrogen storage and infrastructure

Solve marine fuel and thus pave the way for emission-free

pave the way for ocean shipping.

The decision for hydrogen fuel cells in combination with a

Ammonia splitter allows shipowners to start with ammonia and

to switch to hydrogen at any time, thereby minimizing investment risks

become. This approach not only positions ammonia as viable

Hydrogen carrier, but also enables its economical use as

preferred fuel in shipping in addition to its traditional role in

Chemical and fertilizer sector.

The contract for the entire delivery is subject to financing

the new PGS buildings and the conclusion of a final delivery contract,

including final price negotiations, in accordance with industry standards.

“We are pleased to work with TECO 2030 and their

Combining fuel cell solution with our own gap technology, so

that the new Pherousa ships are the first fully electric ocean-going ships at sea

will be,” said Hans Bredrup, Chairman of the Pherousa Group. He commented

further:?The technology combination between TECO 2030 and Pherousa reduced

not just the ammonia consumption compared to those powered by ammonia

Internal combustion engines that are currently being developed, but also avoids the

Combustion of ammonia together with carbon-based pilot fuels”.

He adds: “Actually zero emissions – quite intentionally.”

?We are proud to have a firm contract for the supply of six

Ships to sign with Pherousa Green Shipping. Pherousa Green Shipping

is a young, future-oriented shipping company that offers an emission-free

would like to realize ocean shipping. Pherousa is an exciting company

with a clear vision: We want to prove that hydrogen and ammonia as

Fuel can be used for the ocean-going ships of tomorrow,” said Tore

Enger, Group CEO of TECO 2030, enthusiastically.
