Kawasaki Heavy Industries has developed the world’s largest volume (40,000m 3 class/1 unit) cargo storage facility (CCS: cargo containment system) to be mounted on a large liquefied hydrogen carrier and has approved the basic design AiP (Approval in Principle). It was acquired from the Japan Maritime Association.

The cargo storage facility that acquired AiP this time is for transporting a large amount of cryogenic liquefied hydrogen whose volume has been reduced to 1/800 by cooling to minus 253°C and is used as a marine liquefied hydrogen cargo storage facility. It is the largest volume in the world.

The use of hydrogen is expected to expand worldwide, and efforts are being made to build a supply chain to realize a Hydrogen Society. Suiso Frontier is the world’s first liquefied hydrogen carrier built by KHI, a member of the CO2-free Hydrogen Energy Supply-chain Technology Research Association (HySTRA).
