Sunreef Yachts has revealed details of the Sunreef Zero Cat project, a new zero-emissions sailing superyacht.
The new sailing superyacht, presently being developed by Sunreef’s R&D department, will combine hydrogen power and electric propulsion to make cruising more sustainable. The brand hopes the new model will herald a ‘new standard’ of conscious cruising.
In a statement released this week, Sunreef confirmed the Zero Cat catamaran will measure over 27m and will combine hydrogen power and electric propulsion to achieve a more sustainable approach to cruising and — in theory — provide an unlimited range.
The Zero Cat will use a hydrogen generator to produce hydrogen from onboard methanol. The system will also benefit from the power produced by the yacht’s solar power system, with solar cells built into the yacht’s entire bodywork. The energy generated by the yacht’s sustainable power systems will be used for both the electric propulsion and hotel loads.
“Our goal is to revolutionise the industry by offering discerning customers an exceptional zero-emission sailing experience,” says Nicolas Lapp, CTO of Sunreef Yachts. “This project represents a milestone in our ongoing commitment to protecting our oceans and preserving the natural beauty of the sea.”
Sunreef Yachts, the luxury multihull builder from Poland, has been pushing into the Asia region in recent years. In February, the boatbuilder opened a new office in Dubai to strengthen its presence in the Middle East. Last year, Sunreef appointed Hong Seh Marine as its Singapore dealer across its full range of sailing and power multihulls.
Almost all Sunreef’s current lineup can now be had in an eco-version , which is a set of options that covers everything from renewable energy sources to building in flax-based fibreglass.

Sunreef Yachts gave seafarers a better look at its revolutionary Zero Cat concept, a catamaran that sails on hydrogen and produces its own power.
Sunreef Yachts is leading the market for semi-custom luxury catamarans while establishing itself as a key player in eco-friendly and sustainable yachting. The Polish yard first teased sailors with its hydrogen and solar powered catamaran last July.
Yachts have long been the symbols of the luxurious lifestyle of the rich and wealthy. But as concerns about climate change continue to intensify, questions arise on how yachts impact the environment.
A superyacht like the Zero Cat is usually defined as a privately owned vessel with at least 78 feet in length. And there are over 9,300 of these vessels sailing on the oceans that’s valued at more than $54 billion .
Along with ships, superyachts contribute significantly to carbon dioxide emissions, which are often overlooked as they’re released at sea.
According to industry data, a superyacht emits more than 7,000 tonnes of CO2 a year – considering it has a helicopter pad, pools, and submarines. To put that in perspective, the emission is over 1,500x more than how much a family car emits.
With this data, maritime construction yards are also put under the spotlight by environmentalists to do something about their pollution.
Sunreef acted fast by introducing its revolutionary superyacht concept – the Zero Cat . It just released the first renders of this highly awaited multihull.
The concept yacht has stairways at the back of each hull, leaning toward the water, and a wraparound lounge at the outside helm. It also appears to have an alfresco lounge.
With this sleek superyacht design, Sunreef’s goal is to develop a sustainable sailing yacht with self-sufficient and unlimited range non-sail propulsion.
At the heart of this zero-emission luxury catamaran is the green energy that sets it apart from other superyacht models.
According to the yard, Zero Cat runs on an engine that uses a hydrogen fuel cell which powers the superyacht. It also comes with a reformer that can transform methanol into hydrogen.
The fuel-cell system producing clean energy will electrically power the propulsion as well as the hotel load, Sunreef said. With this green technology, the catamaran will generate no carbon emissions and oxides.
Without an engine powered by burning oil, the superyacht will also sail with little noise and vibrations for a quiet and smooth ride.
What’s more unique about Zero Cat is its ability to create additional green energy through its hydro generators and solar cells, which Sunreef refers to as a “solar skin”.
The solar skin is not unique to the concept yacht but has been on Sunreef’s other models. It’s wrapped around the superyacht’s bodywork and can continuously produce solar energy so long as the sun shines.
There’s also a bonus in sailing with Zero Cat: no need for high-pressure hydrogen storage on board. It means yachting would be safe, as opposed to the hydrogen stigma created by the 1937 Hindenburg crash.
And that stigma seems to be erased now that hydrogen fuel cells are hitting the market big time.
A leading company focusing on zero-emission vehicles, First Hydrogen Corp. , shocked the market with its unbeatable fuel-cell EV (FCEV) trial results. The company’s FCEV vans trial with SSE Plc cleared 630km of range, almost double that of traditional EVs. The hydrogen vehicles also boast a 5-minute refuel time, similar to gas-powered vehicles.
With its massive success in the first trial, First Hydrogen will open up fleet trials to additional commercial opportunities. This is in response to growing interests from parcel delivery or logistics companies wanting First Hydrogen’s FCEV for express deliveries. These operation trials will start soon late Qtr 3 and Qtr 4 this year.
The demand for zero-emission vehicles and vessels has started to spike as governments and companies worldwide are racing to net zero emissions . And hydrogen fuel cells offer a promising solution for a cleaner and greener power source.
Sunreef Yachts still has a lot to do before its Zero Cat concept becomes a real superyacht sustainably sailing. But by combining hydrogen energy and other renewable power sources on board the yacht, it holds the promise for a luxurious but carbon-free getaway on the sea.

Over the nautical seasons, these have taken over from the yard's traditional units. An enviable situation, rare in boating and yachting, but which however did not encourage the Sunreef Yachts teams to rest on their laurels. Because with ZERO CAT, Sunreef is going even further, by announcing a zero-emission luxury catamaran! A few years ago, imagining a luxury catamaran sailboat, 90 feet long, self-sufficient in energy and with unlimited autonomy, would have been a challenge.
This challenge is clearly no longer one on the side of Gdansk, headquarters of the Polish shipyard Sunreef Yachts, which after having imagined electric and hybrid ECO catamarans, is now developing a ZERO EMISSION model called Zero Cat.
At the heart of this concept, an engine using a hydrogen fuel cell, generating electricity from green methanol, the system benefiting from the green energy produced on board by the yacht's solar energy system, with cells solar panels integrated into the entire structure of the yacht.
The fuel cell system produces clean energy without any emissions, an energy used both for electric propulsion and household electronics (on-board consumers).
This innovation is all the more interesting in that it incorporates all the specificities developed over the years by Sunreef in the field of eco-responsible yachting, namely:
With Zero CAT, Sunreef Yachts' goal was to develop a sustainable sailing superyacht, whose non-sail propulsion was to ensure self-sufficiency and unlimited range. By combining hydrogen energy and electric propulsion, the Zero Cat should once again give the Polish shipyard a good head start.
Unlike hydrogen produced on land and loaded on board a ship (or a truck), green methanol does not require any modification of the ship's tanks, nor complex and particularly expensive logistics (compression, cooling....) even delicate.
This is the advantage of e-fuels, these "green" fuels, made from photovoltaic energy, of which Siemens Energy is a pioneer. The production process of e-methanol is based on the chemical combination of CO2 and hydrogen. Hydrogen is first produced in an electrolyser, before being converted into methanol in a reactor by catalysis with carbon dioxide (CO2) from recovered and stored CO2. To manufacture e-methanol (carbon neutral), hydrogen from renewable electricity (photovoltaic or wind power) is used in combination with biogenic CO2. E-methanol can reduce CO2 emissions by 95%, nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions by 80%, and completely eliminate sulfur oxide (SOx) and particulate emissions.

The global authority in superyachting
Polish yard Sunreef Yachts has released the first images of its zero-emission catamaran named the Zero Cat. By producing clean hydrogen, the shipyard reaffirms its commitment to discovering "cleaner and greener yachting solutions".
Currently in development with Sunreef's R&D department, the new sailing superyacht will measure in excess of 27.4 metres and aims to combine hydrogen power with electric propulsion for a new standard of eco-conscious cruising. It will generate net zero emissions, no nitrogen oxides or sulfur oxides.
According to the yard, the Zero Cat will house a hydrogen generator to produce its own hydrogen sourced from green methanol on board, which will be used to power the majority of the yacht's energy requirements. Other advantages include low noise and vibration levels.
Additional green power will come from an onboard solar power system, with solar cells built into the hulls and superstructure.
The mix of power feeds into a fuel cell system used to generate zero-emission energy for both the electric propulsion and hotel load, including the air conditioning, watermakers and onboard electronics.
"Our goal is to revolutionise the industry by offering discerning customers an exceptional zero-emission sailing experience," Sunreef co-founder and CTO Nicolas Lapp said in a statement. "This project represents a milestone in our ongoing commitment to protecting our oceans and preserving the natural beauty of the sea."
The Zero Cat follows a series of new project announcements from Sunreef, including a new hybrid power catamaran range known as Ultima and a new 33M Explorer Eco model with transpacific capabilities. The yard also has 13 orders currently on order, according to BOATPro , with deliveries extending until 2025.

Yachts in your shortlist
A cruising cat much under 40ft is a rare beast, especially one that’s meant to be fun to sail. Theo Stocker went to see if the Excess 11 really delivers.
Price as reviewed:.
Catamarans don’t belong in the UK, I hear you cry. If you’ve been put off by towering topsides, the vast beam and ideas about how much it might cost to keep one in a marina, or their supposed lack of upwind performance, then stay with me. The Excess 11 is a boat that has certainly made me think again.
High-volume production catamarans certainly make fantastic boats for chartering with your family in hot climates and introducing nervous crew to life afloat, but I was eager to find out if a new brand of catamaran could also make a genuinely practical and enjoyable cruising boat for private owners to sail in the UK’s more temperate waters.
If you’re looking for a cruising catamaran you have, until fairly recently, faced a choice between a high-volume, stubby-keeled cruising catamaran, or a dagger-boarded speed machine. Alongside Nautitech , however, Excess has jumped into a niche for high- volume but modest displacement cruising cats that seek to offer the best of both worlds.
Theo found the Excess 11 is resilient with an impressive finish. Photo: Paul Wyeth
The Excess brand emerged from the Beneteau Group just six years ago to fill this perceived void. Employing top racing catamaran and foiling IMOCA designers VPLP means this boat has at least a modicum of performance in her DNA. Could this be a catamaran that’s comfy to live on, reassuringly solid at sea, and still genuinely engaging to sail?
At first glance, the Excess 11 has much in common with other modern cruising cats – high topsides, a generously glazed deck saloon, staggering amounts of space in the hulls, and shallow, long chord keels. But it was her differences that piqued my interest. To start with she’s just 37ft in length – a good 3ft shorter than any of her competitors, and only the Broadblue 345 is smaller than this.
Rather than a single, raised helm station, she has twin helms on the main deck level, aft and outboard of the superstructure. To bring the helm to life, steering uses Dyneema cables rather than hydraulics, and with the wheels where they are, this is a surprisingly short cable run to minimise play and maximise feeling.
Sheeting angles are controlled by in-and-out haulers for the overlapping genoa. Photo: Paul Wyeth
Winches are at deck level, too, so there’s more for crew to do if they want to get involved, and she comes at a surprisingly competitive price when you compare her to monohulls – the Excess 11 may cost more than boats of a similar length, but for the same space aboard you’d need to be looking at a boat at least five or 10ft longer.
So it was that I found myself motoring down the Hamble river at the bright orange wheel of an Excess 11. With both wheels set right aft and outboard you have a pretty unobstructed view directly forwards and outboard. Look through the glazing, and you then get a surprisingly clear view through the arcs obstructed by the saloon.
Step inboard slightly, still within reach of the wheel, and you can see round the support posts and straight out of the front of the boat. It takes a little getting used to as the tops of the windows were slightly below eye level (I’m 6ft 1in tall), but it’s similar to helming a deck-saloon monohull or even just ducking to leeward to look round a headsail.
The boom is low enough to make stowing the sail easy from atop the coach roof. Photo: Paul Wyeth
As we motored along, I was reassured that I could control the boat from either side, thanks to the electronic throttles controlling the twin 29hp Yanmar inboards; this means command can be taken from either wheel.
While cats are directionally stable, you might notice that, as with many other cats, there’s no prop wash over the rudders. That’s because her rudders are ahead of the propellers – an arrangement that allows the engines to be pushed right aft, saving space for the aft cabins. Not an issue in a cat as you can drive it on the throttles like a tank – not that I’ve ever driven one of those, but I imagine it’s similar.
We didn’t get the sunniest of days – the clouds stubbornly obscured the sun all day and the temperature was remarkably low for mid summer – but at least we had a decent breeze. As you’d expect from a multihull, the main is large and powerful to help propel drive the extra hull, but a two-to-one halyard taken to the powered winch ahead of the starboard helm help us set sail.
The dramatic hull flares are obvious seen from the bows. Photo: Paul Wyeth
On our test Excess 11, Sea Ventures’ stock boat, all lines other than a couple of halyards were led aft to clutches and a winch ahead of the starboard wheel, including both sheets for the overlapping jib. Most owners opt for the self-tacking jib, which simplifies things further.
With all lines taken to one side there’s a lot of rope in one place, which needs keeping tidy, though I can see that splitting controls to both sides would make some of them frustratingly hard to reach for the helm.
Underway, we faced a beat out of Southampton Water and around Bramble Bank into open water. Before I had a chance to remember that multihulls aren’t meant to tack well, I’d put her into a tack just as I would a monohull; she popped through easily and was off again almost instantly.
When it comes to a cruiser that the whole family can enjoy, a catamaran is a sensible option. Photo: Paul Wyeth
A slight bear away helped rebuild any lost momentum and we were back pointing up to 40º-43º off the apparent wind, giving us a compass tacking angle of 115º-120º – not bad for a cruising cat. When you take into account that we were doing over 7 knots upwind, upwind in a Force 4, in a 37-footer, on a completely even keel, that’s actually pretty impressive and probably almost a knot faster than you’d get from the same size monohull. Clearly, in a big seaway, the extra hull and potential slamming from the nacelle might see this drop off, but the Solent chop wasn’t anywhere near big enough to test this.
Article continues below…
Multihulls are clearly booming. They’ve been popular as charter boats for a long time, thanks to the sheer amount of…
How do you make an average passage speed of 7 knots, fit in three double cabins and a huge saloon…
Steering from the windward helm, I loved being outboard and able to see forwards and to feel the wind in my face. The helm was light and responsive, and while you don’t get the feedback of the boat heeling and loading up, it was sensitive enough for me to feel the fore-and-aft balance of the sailplan – not something you’d get in your average heavy cruising cat. Seeing the genoa telltales wasn’t the easiest, so helming from leeward helped with this.
The starboard wheel was home to most of the controls, but throttles can be used on either side. Photo: Paul Wyeth
In terms of visibility, it was, if anything, better than when sailing to windward in a monohull, as the sail is above the line of sight from the hull, and the saloon windows remain conducive to looking through.
Bearing away and in a freshening breeze, we accelerated slightly to 7.5 knots on a close reach, but the real speed came from setting the 54m2 Code Zero, which was set and furled on the foldable bowsprit (this hinges away to reduce length when in harbour). We comfortably maintained speeds over 8 knots, with the occasional foray into the high nines and a max speed of 10.1 knots with the wake fizzing off the transoms as the wind gusted to the top end of the recommended windspeed for the Code Zero. The huge asymmetric is an option for lighter airs and deeper angles.
A modest galley and chart table are plenty for cruising as a couple or with a couple of friends. Photo: Paul Wyeth
The sailplan crossover table for recommended wind ranges for each sail option by the helms was a useful addition; without heel angle you need to sail a cat more by numbers. Experienced owners might be willing to bend the rules, but even so, this looks and feels like a boat that can stand up to her canvas well. She’s not going to be planing, but surfs in double digits are well within her reach.
Handling the Code Zero was straight-forward – the headsail halyards are the only lines taken to port, plus the furling line for the Zero, and sheets are led to the winches either side, so you do need a couple of people to release and sheet in after a gybe. Furling the sail is probably the easier way to gybe in reality, though handling the winches is easy enough from the helm. If you did want two winches, you’d have to move up to the larger Excess 14.
Good cruising speeds can be reached with minimum fuss. Photo: Paul Wyeth
The big plus of having the wheels and lines all on deck level with the cockpit is that it is easy for crew to lend a hand, helping them feel involved and making communication easier. It would also feel more secure in a seaway, while the proximity to the water makes the sailing experience more engaging.
Seats fold down behind the helm across the transom access giving two people somewhere comfy to sit and improving the sense of security at the wheel, also helped by the high bulwark outboard. Steps inboard of the wheels take you up onto the wide side decks.
On deck, much of the foredeck is trampoline to keep weight and potential sources of slamming well aft. The anchor mounts to a bow roller next to the forestay with the chain led aft to the vast nacelle lockers ahead of the saloon windows via a moulded channel, which keeps the chain flush underfoot. Most owners will opt for the second 300-litre water tank in this locker, as there’s easily space for it and crew will be happier with less strict water rationing.

All accommodation hatches are flush in the deck, and in each bow is a cavernous fo’c’sle locker for extra kit and sails. There’s an option for these lockers to be made into extra berths if you want capacity for 12 on board.
Living arrangements on board the Excess 11 are very practical, especially for a crew of six in the three-cabin layout most owners opt for. We found crew congregate at the back of the cockpit, where there are six seats across the stern, as well as the bench seat to port and an L-shaped seat around the cockpit table, giving plenty of space to relax.

The low boom means packing the sail can be done at waist height from the canopy without any additional climbing, so many owners opt for the hard-top cockpit canopy so that it can be walked on, as well as a place to mount solar panels. A folding canvas ‘targa’ top is also an option, however, if you want to let more light in.
Walk forwards through the sliding doors and you find yourself in a large open space around the saloon table, surrounded by an L-shaped settee against the forward bulkhead, with a couple of stools for extra seating. At the starboard end there is a nav station, though in reality navigation will be done on deck.
Against the aft and outboard sides to starboard is the L-shaped galley, with a fixed oven and two-burner gas hob, front-opening fridge, and a few lockers. To port of the entrance are another set of large lockers, ideal for stowing lifejackets and other sailing kit, or more food, and there’s also stowage under the saloon seats. It isn’t the world’s largest galley, but I had to keep on reminding myself this boat is just 37ft. It’s more than enough for a cruise of a week or two, or longer for a couple.
Space and light make the saloon a pleasant place to be in harbour and underway. Photo: Paul Wyeth
It’s down in the hulls that you really see the merit of the hulls’ volume. A marked flare above the waterline maximises space without adding drag, and the resulting chines keep spray down. Clever contours in the topsides also reduce the visual impact of big slab sides, while adding strength and volume.
To port, there are double cabins fore and aft, both with more-or-less square berths and a good-sized heads with separate shower compartment between them. Each enjoys a large hull window with opening port and a deckhead opening hatch, plus a couple of lockers and under-bed stowage spaces.
The starboard hull is the real selling point, however. How many 37-footers can offer almost the whole length for a single cabin? The owner’s ‘suite’ can be shut off from the rest of the boat with a sliding door across the stairs. There’s a locker and desk/dressing table at the bottom of the three steps, and a huge double berth aft, while the forward end is occupied by a big bathroom – nothing like the cramped heads you and I know – with a separate shower compartment, and more lockers.
Palatial space for the owner’s cabin, thanks to having a whole hull to yourselves. Photo: Paul Wyeth
In terms of maintenance, there’s very little you’ll need access to, other than the heads seacocks in the main hulls. Most of the systems are congregated in the large engine bays just aft of the wheels, accessed via deck panels that helpfully hinge aft, so you can access them without having to perch on the bathing platform.
On the whole, access is good, though the engines are mounted the ‘right way’ round with the sail drives aft, but this means that the alternator, impeller and water strainer are all tucked right forwards with no way of tackling them head on. The yard explained that if the engines were mounted the other way round, with the saildrives closer to the rudders, it would have made both rudder and propeller less efficient, though they acknowledged that it was something of a trade-off.
Aft-hinged engine bay hatches allow good access to the aft end of the engine and most systems from on board. Photo: Paul Wyeth
The other possible issue was that the Dyneema steering cables I so liked at the helm run immediately above the engine. While HMPE rope has a melting point of 150ºC, its maximum operating temperature, according to Southern Ropes, is 70ºC, where some engines will run at over 80ºC in normal operation.
In the event of an engine fire, you could well lose the steering cable, though the opposite wheel should continue to give you steerage with both rudders via the tie bar, or failing that, the emergency tiller. Other than this, I was impressed with the finish of the boat, which seemed to be of a good standard and with no obvious rough edges.
Structurally, the Excess 11 has been designed to be pretty bombproof. A cat doesn’t need ballast, so all of the weight can go into structural integrity. The keels are designed with extra GRP reinforced ‘shoes’ and for vertical load bearing so the boat can sit comfortably on the keels. These are moulded as part of the hull, filled with foam and capped with laminate, before the whole structure is vacuum-infused with resin.
Most owners will opt for the larger Pulse Line sailplan and the simpler self-tacking jib. Photo: Paul Wyeth
There are no keel bolts to worry about, but they are designed so that if the keels suffered a large side impact, the keel would fail without damage to the watertight integrity of the hull, acting as a fuse, allowing the boat to sail on and seek repair, which seems eminently sensible to me.
Guests aren’t short-changed either, with huge berths and views out of the hull windows. Photo: Paul Wyeth

I may sail monohull predominantly, but I’ve chartered a few cats and sailed some small multihulls, so I stepped aboard the Excess 11 with an open mind, and found myself quickly warming to the boat. It took much less than you might think for this boat to come alive as a sailing boat, delivering a genuinely engaging and enjoyable experience on the helm, whilst giving your crew a thoroughly civilised time on board too. The layout of the helms, deck and accommodation were all well thought through and user-friendly for a short-handed crew, and I was sold by the one-level sailing and living approach. For what I’d see as a ‘low-maintenance’ boat to sail, the Excess offers performance and fun for eating up miles with ease, at the same time as being staggeringly spacious and comfortable for her length.
Step-by-step guide: how to sail a code zero on a catamaran.
Handling a Code Zero sail on a modern cruising catamaran: This informative and inspiring how-to-video was made by the Australian multihull experts of TMG Yachts , after taking delivery of a new Rolly Tasker Sails Code 0 . This sail was tailor made for the Lagoon 46 catamaran featured here by Rolly Tasker Sails Australia . So, for the exhilarating experience of flying a Code Zero sail , come along on board and learn how to safely and efficiently handle this exciting sail on this special type of boat with this clear and concise step-by-step guide.
In this video, Joe Fox of TMG Yachts not only shows the practicalities of sailing with a Code Zero, but he also explains the difference between a Code Zero and an asymmetrical spinnaker . He then takes us through all the steps in setting up and preparing the Code 0, including some finer points like, for example, halyard tension.
The Code zero sail is somewhere between a large Genoa and an asymmetrical spinnaker . Lighter and larger in area than the Genoa, it is also furled . It is however a true downwind sail , made for broad reaching .
When do you best fly your Code Zero ? Learn about wind range and wind angles most suitable for this beautiful sail. The video also gives a very detailed and clear step-by-step guide to hoisting and unfurling the sail . Once it is up and pulling, learn all about the perfect trim and how easy it is to gybe this sail in relaxed cruising mode.
As already said, the Code Zero is a downwind sail for up to 150 degrees or so off the wind. It is not suitable for any courses closer to the wind than a beam reach. And even the beam reach should only be sailed with the Code 0 in really light winds – especially on a catamaran, there is huge pressure on the rigging, and you do not want to over-power that. For a cruising cat, Joe recommends the wind speed limit for a Code Zero at 15 to 20 knots . And the stronger the wind is, the lower off the wind you should sail.
This video is great fun to watch, it will inspire you and make you want to get out on the water now to experience the thrill of fast sailing! The Code Zero sail can really turbo charge your cruising catamaran , adding several knots of speed, especially in light airs. However, apart from literally showing you the ropes of how to do it, it also points out potential problems when you are not taking care …
Have fun both when watching the video and also, of course, out on the water!

San Francisco, CA — July 12, 2024 — Today San Francisco Bay Ferry and a group of private and public sector partners launched the MV Sea Change , the world’s first commercial passenger ferry powered 100% by zero-emission hydrogen fuel cells. The vessel will begin service to the public on July 19, offering free transportation between Pier 41 and the Downtown San Francisco Ferry Terminal.
The Sea Change represents an enormous milestone toward efforts to decarbonize the maritime industry. It will operate as a part of the San Francisco Bay Ferry network for a six-month demonstration period designed to showcase the application of fuel cell technology as a viable strategy for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and improving air quality. The vessel emits only water vapor, a portion of which is remineralized and used in the onboard water fountain, making it the only vessel in the world with drinkable emissions.
The vessel is owned by SWITCH Maritime, and was developed by the company with support from a grant provided by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). The demonstration service is made possible thanks to sponsorships from a group of partners including Chevron New Energies; the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway, and Transportation District; and United Airlines. The service will be operated by San Francisco Bay Ferry’s contract operator, Blue & Gold Fleet.
“California is a global leader in the fight against the climate crisis, pioneering new technologies to ramp up clean energy and cut pollution — that’s why the zero-emission Sea Change is so exciting,” said California Governor Gavin Newsom. “I’m proud of our state’s role in advancing these innovations, and of our state’s public and private sector partners for bringing them to market and demonstrating their viability.”
“The Sea Change is a real-world, practical example of how the government and private sector can work together to help demonstrate the commercial viability and increase consumer confidence in hydrogen,” said Austin Knight, vice president, Hydrogen, Chevron New Energies. “Hydrogen can play a key role in achieving a lower carbon future for public transportation. At Chevron we are focused on building partnerships to develop a large-scale hydrogen business to help advance energy progress.”
According to the Congressional Budget Office , transportation is the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the United States. Advances in hydrogen fuel cell technology and other lower carbon or net neutral technologies come at an important time as 2024 is projected to be one of the hottest years on record.
The Sea Change is part of California Climate Investments , a statewide initiative that puts billions of cap-and-trade dollars to work, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment, particularly in disadvantaged communities.
The Sea Change was developed in California and built by All American Marine in Bellingham, WA. “We’re very proud that this state-of-the-art vessel was built in Washington, and we are thrilled that it will be put into operation in the San Francisco Bay Area,” said Washington Governor Jay Inslee. “The Sea Change is a great example of Washington and California collaborating toward our shared goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and create a more sustainable future. I look forward to taking a ride next time I’m in San Francisco.”
“Providing access to this world-first technology for the thousands of future Sea Change passengers is a key step toward protecting the environment,” said Jim Wunderman, Chair of the San Francisco Bay Ferry Board of Directors. “We have worked hard alongside our partners to make this groundbreaking ferry a reality, but it will be the passengers who bring it to life.”
"As a long-time advocate of Bay Area transit innovation and a member of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, I am thrilled to support the launch of the world's first commercial hydrogen fuel ferry. The Sea Change will be a national model and represents a bold milestone in the future of clean energy transportation and infrastructure,” said U.S. Rep. Kevin Mullin, CA-15.
"The launch of the one-of-a-kind MV Sea Change represents a historic investment in the future of clean energy transportation and infrastructure in the United States,” said U.S. Rep. Jared Huffman, CA-2. “It should come as no surprise to see the Bay Area ferry service on the forefront of green transit innovation.“
“The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is excited to witness the clean transportation future in action with the launch of the MV Sea Change and is proud to be part of the partnership that made this vessel a reality. Thanks to cap-and-trade dollars at work through our California Climate Investments, innovative and sustainable transportation options like the Sea Change are being developed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve public health, particularly in California’s most vulnerable communities,” said CARB Chair Liane Randolph.
“We are thrilled to partner with San Francisco Bay Ferry and others to bring the first hydrogen passenger ferry to the Bay Area,” said Denis Mulligan, General Manager of the Golden Gate Bridge, Highway and Transportation District. “This demonstration project provides an exciting glimpse into the clean and bright future of Bay Area water transportation.”
“The Sea Change represents an exciting transition to carbon-neutral fuel sources, charting a new course toward a cleaner future,” said Patrick Murphy, President of Blue & Gold Fleet.
“This is not just the start of service for the Sea Change , but hopefully also the start of much more active investment in the energy transition of the maritime industry in California and beyond,” said Pace Ralli, CEO of SWITCH Maritime.
MV Sea Change is a 70-foot, 75-passenger catamaran ferry featuring an integrated hydrogen power system from Zero Emission Industries (ZEI) with 360kW of PEM fuel cells,100kWh of Li-Ion battery storage, and 600kW of electric motor propulsion, providing a top speed of 15 knots and service speed of 8-12 knots.
ABOUT SAN FRANCISCO BAY FERRY San Francisco Bay Ferry is a regional public transit agency tasked with developing, operating, and expanding ferry service on the San Francisco Bay and with coordinating the water transit response to regional emergencies. The agency operates ferry routes connecting the cities of Alameda, Oakland, Richmond, San Francisco, South San Francisco, and Vallejo. San Francisco Bay Ferry operates the cleanest ferry system in the country and is poised to reduce emissions even further with the launch of the nation’s first network of high-speed, rapid-charging, zero-emission ferries as part of its Rapid Electric Emission Free (REEF) Ferry Program.
