Berlin-based port and logistics company Ballard Power Systems has ordered three 100 kW fuel cells from BEHALA for the world’s first zero-emission push boat, Electra, which will be used on German waterways. Completion of the 65 ft craft is expected by the end of 2020. It will be powered by Ballard’s FCveloCity fuel cells along with modular batteries. Electra is being constructed at a time when the shipping industry is under pressure to cut emissions.
