Development of a hydrogen-electric passenger ship and associated shore infrastructure to connect the islands in the Gulf of Morbihan. The 24-metre vessel has a capacity of 150 to 200 passengers. It is equipped with a CIAM®-designed propulsion system consisting of two 150 kW propulsion lines that are powered by a system of two fuel cells using hydrogen stored on board in high-pressure tanks at 350 bar.
In addition to the vessel, the Hylias (HYdrogen for Land, Integrated Renewables and Sea) project also involves the creation of a virtuous ecosystem in the region, with a genuine production and consumption chain for green hydrogen on land and at sea.
The project is expected to start in 2025.
