| 摘要： | Feeney Shipyard, Kingston, N.Y., is retrofitting a 105'×27'×15' tug for Amogy Inc., Brooklyn, N.Y. The ammonia-powered, zero-emission vessel is scheduled to be delivered in late 2023. Ammonia is predicted to become the leading fuel source for the world's giant cargo ships by 2050, according to the International Energy Agency. The tug was originally built in 1957 at Brooklyn-based Jakobson Shipyard and uses diesel generators and electric motors, with its ammonia-to-power system. Main propulsion will be the responsibility of a 1-MW version of Amogy's 600 kW powerpack. The boat will also be outfitted with two auxiliary diesel generators. Amogy's ammonia-to-power technology feeds liquid ammonia through its cracking modules integrated into a hybrid fuel cell system, which powers the electric motors for zero-carbon shipping, the company said. Amogy plans to launch the tugboat later this year in upstate New York after further safety testing. |
