PIRIOU develops Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) with hydrogen hybrid propulsion

The announcement was made on Monday November 16th: PIRIOU is one of the three winners of the Call for notification of interest of the offshore wind Innovation Challenge –managed by WPD and the Brittany maritime cluster -Pôle Mer Bretagne Atlantique- thanks to its Crew Transfer Vessel (CTV) with hydrogen hybrid propulsion.

Following the call for proposals launched at the end of 2019, PIRIOU decided to meet the challenge. Drawing on its experience in crew transfer to oil fields, in the delivery of over a hundred 18m to 55m crew boats and the building of about ten 27m and 22m CTVs for wind farms, Piriou has broadened its range with a H2 low emission CTV.
