About the project

Engineering consultancy and ship designer Longitude Engineering have recently completed a project to provide alternative fuel systems engineering for a ground-breaking new vessel design by Dykstra Naval Architects, for Greenpeace International.

Scope of Work

• Designed alternative fuel systems for green hydrogen and e-methanol.
• Engineered hybrid propulsion power systems for emissions-free operation.
• Integrated battery storage and solar PV for renewable energy use.
• Developed onboard marine systems to support sustainable technologies.
• Collaborated with Dykstra Naval Architects on vessel systems integration.
• Contributed specialist expertise to enable full zero-emissions capability.

Results

• Enabled design of a fully emissions-free, 75m Greenpeace vessel.
• Integrated multiple green technologies into a cohesive energy system.
• Supported development of one of the world’s most sustainable ships.
• Demonstrated the viability of alternative fuels for high-seas operations.
• Advanced innovation in zero-emissions marine propulsion.
• Strengthened Longitude’s position as a leader in clean ship design.
