Climate Impact Corporation (CIC) has announced a new agreement with Purus Marine to establish a net-zero shipping pathway for CIC’s renewable hydrogen fuels.
This collaboration marks a significant advancement towards creating a truly end-to-end, net-zero hydrogen product.
The partnership aims to facilitate the global transportation of renewable hydrogen produced by CIC’s innovative modular hydrogen solution.
This solution is designed to generate affordable, sustainable, and reliable energy.
With secured hydrogen demand in the Asia-Pacific and Europe supporting the development of CIC’s two 10GW projects in Australia, Purus’s cutting-edge low-carbon shipping capabilities will enable these fuels to become one of the most sustainable options on the market, achieving net-zero emissions through carbon offsetting.
CIC Chairman David Green emphasised the critical nature of the agreement in delivering a hydrogen product that aligns with the ambitions of energy and derivatives customers.
“Demand for renewable hydrogen is driven by the desire for zero-carbon fuels,” stated Green.
“However, traditional products often overlook transport emissions when claiming to be truly green.
“This agreement with Purus secures a renewable-powered integrated supply chain, which is a game-changer in helping our customers achieve their net-zero goals.”
Green also highlighted that affordability is central to both partners’ approach to shipping renewable hydrogen.
“Every decision in building our modules and securing a supply chain at scale is designed to achieve a US$2/kg price for our renewable hydrogen,” Green explained.
“Purus’s innovation in sustainable shipping, adopted alongside these technologies, allows us to maintain this focus without sacrificing affordability.”
This partnership between Climate Impact Corporation and Purus Marine sets a new standard for the renewable hydrogen industry, ensuring a sustainable and cost-effective pathway for the global distribution of clean energy.
