Sitronics announced that it has successfully tested a boat equipped with an electrochemical generator (ECG) that converts hydrogen into electricity.
The company highlighted that the boat is the first of its kind in Russia.
Hydrogen, the most eco-friendly and promising type of fuel, can extend the range of electric boats, making them suitable for traveling long distances, said the company, adding such a technology can be applied to both cruise and cargo ships.
On hydrogen fuel, a small passenger electric boat can run for up to 20 hours without additional refueling, it said.
