World’s first fuel cell ship

The Viking Lady, owned by the Norwegian shipping firm Eidesvik, has a 320-kilowatt molten carbonate fuel cell that powers the 9,500 ton vessel. It’s the first ship to ever use fuel cell technology
The fuel cells run on LNG, can use methanol, and greatly reduce carbon emissions. No, they don’t power the entire ship yet. Maybe soon though.

Bearing in mind that the primary “su” word is what happens after the glaciers have all melted.
