Rob Campbell, Ballard CCO, said, "Ballard is focused on heavy- and medium-duty motive applications, particularly where requirements include heavy payload, extended range and rapid refuelling. "This is a sweet spot for our fuel cell value proposition, which is backed up by more than 50 mill km of operational experience in thousands of vehicles. These same requirements underpin use cases in the maritime industry, resulting in a significant addressable market opportunity that can be effectively addressed by our new FCwave product. Global efforts to de-carbonise include commercial maritime activities, where Ballard intends to build on our leading position in zero-emission fuel cell solutions," he said. Jesper Themsen, Ballard Power Systems Europe CEO, added, "The IMO has set aggressive targets for reduction of CO2 emissions in the marine sector, including 50% lower emissions by 2050.
