In the maritime sector, reliable power with minimal environmental impact is essential. Zepp’s hydrogen-powered generator sets provide clean electricity where conventional solutions fall short. From shore power and vessel battery charging to temporary or off-grid port operations, our systems deliver dependable, fossil-free energy without noise or emissions. Built for demanding environments and engineered around our proven fuel cell technology, zepp.generator sets help maritime operators meet strict sustainability targets without compromising performance.
As the maritime industry transitions to cleaner operations, energy demands are shifting to electric. But access to sufficient grid power is not always guaranteed. Shore connections may be limited, constrained by congestion, or entirely unavailable. Whether at a busy terminal or a remote berth, energy reliability remains a challenge.
Zepp’s hydrogen generator sets offer a grid-independent, zero-emission power solution that meets this need. They supply clean, reliable electricity for a wide range of maritime applications, enabling clean operations where the grid ends or cannot keep up.
Hydrogen generator sets provide a robust and flexible alternative to diesel generators in port and vessel operations. They enable grid-independent, low-noise, zero-emission power for:
Shore power for berthed vessels
When ships are docked, zepp.generator sets can supply mobile shore power where permanent electrical infrastructure is unavailable or insufficient. This reduces emissions and noise in port environments while maintaining operational readiness.
Charging electric vessels
Battery-electric and hybrid ships require clean charging solutions. Zepp’s gensets can recharge vessel batteries directly, making it possible to operate electric vessels even in grid-constrained harbours.
Portable and supplemental port energy
During construction, maintenance, or peak usage, hydrogen gensets offer flexible power for lighting, equipment, or terminal systems. They are also well-suited for temporary grid backup during upgrades or outages.
Support for EU maritime climate goals
Our generator sets meet the sustainability and emissions standards required in European port infrastructure projects, supporting public and private operators in meeting procurement requirements and qualifying for regional and EU funding.
Dutch maritime contractor Van den Herik selected zepp.solutions to deliver a containerised hydrogen generator set to power the fully electric wire crane vessel Prins 6. Based on our X150 fuel cell platform, the system supplies reliable, emission-free electricity to the ship’s battery system during operations.
This project demonstrates the viability of hydrogen power generation in active maritime conditions and marks a significant step toward zero-emission support systems in vessel operations.
In addition to our hydrogen generator sets, zepp.solutions also develops fuel cell systems for direct integration into vessels. These systems are designed to deliver zero-emission propulsion or auxiliary power on board, using the same proven fuel cell modules found in our gensets.
Zepp systems are already operating in commercial and educational vessels. The hydrogen-powered water taxi in Rotterdam is equipped with a zepp.Y50 fuel cell system, delivering clean propulsion on the city’s busy waterways. The Ab Initio, a sustainable training vessel for inland shipping education, also uses a Y50 system to demonstrate hydrogen technology in practice.
These integrations show that zepp’s fuel cell technology is not only field-tested but fully deployable in both onshore and onboard maritime applications.
This compact hydrogen-electric 240/150 kW genset is a ready-to-go, zero-emission alternative to conventional generators.
This 10ft hydrogen-electric 500/300 kW genset is an integrated stationary power solution, a true alternative to conventional diesel power systems.
The G750 is a containerised 750/450 kW generator set for off-grid, cost-effective, zero-emission power.
The G1000 is a containerised 1 MW hydrogen generator set delivering clean, reliable, and autonomous power wherever the grid ends.
