When launched in mid-2019 the Water-Go-Round will be the first fuel cell vessel in the US and the first commercial fuel cell ferry in the world. The completion of this project represents a global paradigm shift for zero emission marine vessel power and hydrogen fuel cell technology. The commercial maritime sector contributes more to global CO2 emissions than every automobile in in the world making this a critical step in reducing CO2 emissions, pollution and protecting our environment.

The saying "it takes a village" couldn't be more appropriate. This project has been made possible thanks to the combined efforts of our wonderful partners from the State of California, the commercial sector and leaders within the maritime community. Visit our partner page to see the list of amazing organizations that have stepped up and invested in our collective future.

The Water-Go-Round will serve as a demonstration to the commercial, regulatory and global community at large. It will demonstrate that hydrogen fuel cell powertrains are perfectly suited for a broad range of maritime applications while offering a compelling business case for adoption. Performance will be independently measured by Sandia National Laboratories. The Water-Go-Round project will lay the foundation for implementation of this technology across the entire maritime industry. We invite you to learn more and join us on our journey!
