HYDROGEN
Kawasaki Heavy Industries and Japan Suiso Energy are set to construct the world's largest liquefied hydrogen carrier, with a capacity of 40,000 cubic meters, to support Japan's hydrogen supply chain. Funded by the Green Innovation Fund, the vessel will be built at Kawasaki's Sakaide Works, designed for efficiency and safety, and is expected to undergo ocean-going trials by 2030. It will feature a hybrid propulsion system to minimize emissions during transit.
