The participants will have an overview of various alternative fuels. Advantages and challenges of each fuel type. Comparative analysis of emissions and environmental impacts. Basics of hydrogen and methanol production, storage, and fuel cell or combustion operation. Efficiency, performance metrics,
and case studies of hydrogen-powered and methanol-fueled vessels. Specific regulations for hydrogen fuel cells and methanol-based systems in maritime settings. Safety standards and certifications are required for construction and operation. Risk analysis methodologies, including HAZOP (Hazard and Operability Study), power & control system considerations, dispersion analysis, and hydrogen and methanol fuel bunkering. Key design principles for integrating hydrogen fuel cells and methanol propulsion systems into ship systems. Operational safety measures and practices. Understanding the interplay between hydrogen/methanol systems and traditional propulsion systems.

The training will be useful for the decision makers from the Government bodies, Shipbuilders, Shipping companies, Ship designers, Ports, Marine equipment manufacturers and all those involved in the supply chain of logistics.
