Hanwha Aerospace Receives DNV AIP Certification on Hydrogen Fuel Cells

• International Authority DNV Verifies Top-Tier Security and Efficiency Standards
  
• 2nd Significant Accreditation Following Korean Register Approval In 2015
  
• Business Placed to Advance Zero-Carbon Maritime Propulsion Innovation

SEOUL, South Korea, March 12, 2025/ PRNewswire/– Hanwha Aerospace reveals that it has actually gotten Approval in Concept (AIP) accreditation from DNV for its 200kW hydrogen fuel cell system created for maritime applications, marking a considerable turning point in the business’s main entry into the environmentally friendly zero-carbon vessel market. This accomplishment follows the business’s advancement of the world’s very first liquid-cooled Energy Storage System (ESS) late in 2015, protecting successive first-rate zero-carbon power options.

The accreditation event happened on the 12th at Hanwha Aerospace’s R&D Center in Pangyo, with Executive Director Dong-jo Oh of Hanwha Aerospace and Vice President Sung-ho Shin of DNV in presence, the business revealed on the 13th.

AIP accreditation validates the security and compliance with global guidelines of brand-new innovations used to ships and products throughout the fundamental style stage. This extensive assessment procedure makes sure that ingenious marine innovations satisfy the greatest requirements of security and efficiency before execution.

” This accreditation from DNV confirms our hydrogen fuel cell innovation at the greatest worldwide requirements for security and efficiency,” stated Dong-jo Oh, Executive Director of Hanwha Aerospace. “We will utilize our environmentally friendly marine option innovations to constantly team up with Hanwha Ocean in targeting the worldwide zero-carbon vessel market, assisting the maritime market accomplish considerable decreases in carbon emissions.”

This most current accreditation builds on Hanwha Aerospace’s previous success in acquiring AIP accreditation from the Korean Register of Shipping (KR) in 2015. With recognition now from both KR and DNV, Hanwha Aerospace is placed to start major marketing and sales of its maritime hydrogen fuel cells in the worldwide market.

With this accreditation, Hanwha Aerospace is placed to protect type approval for its Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) innovation, enhancing its competitiveness in the zero-carbon propulsion systems market. The business prepares to more establish and advertise this innovation for numerous marine vessels, from industrial ships to specialized maritime applications.
