We also expect to demonstrate the viability of other key concepts and systems, as well as the ability of these systems to interact with each other reliably in the harsh environment out at sea. Airplanes, for example, won’t be able to fly long distances on battery power. The process emits about 10 tonnes of CO2 per tonne of hydrogen.
