Energy Observer is a zero-emission laboratory for ecological transition designed to push back the limits of zero-emission technologies. Hydrogen, solar, wind and tidal power, all the various solutions are experimented with, tested and optimised onboard with a view to making clean energies a practical reality that is accessible to all.
As one of the world’s foremost maritime nations, Singapore’s maritime industry has already initiated and funded enormously towards decarbonisation and clean energy resources. While many alternative fuel solutions are being tested by the shipping industry, Energy Observer will allow key industry stakeholders, shipowners, investors, shipyards, and design offices a real-life practical view of future technologies onboard a vessel.
Schedule for Energy Observer Singapore stopover
Along with Energy Observer arriving, there will be an exhibition village on land at Sentosa Cove which showcases the story of Energy Observers and acts as a learning centre and conference space for high level talks on sustainability in the energy and maritime sectors.
Over the 10 day stopover, the vessel and village will predominately host key industry stakeholders to tour the vessel and have talks inside the village, around both the village and the vessel there will be information boards for people to learn more about practical technologies onboard and how they work.
Energy Observer Arrives in Singapore
“Energy Observer is an experimental platform for tomorrow’s energies. An innovative, revolutionary vessel that sails without harming the planet. Its electric propulsion is powered by renewable energies: sun, wind, marine currents. But what makes it unique is its ability to store its energy in the form of hydrogen produced from seawater, a technology that allows it to sail in total autonomy. Meaning must be given to innovation, for it to respond to the challenges humanity faces today. ” – Victorien Erussard, Captain and founder of Energy Observer
