The hydrogen-powered and zero-emission vessel will make its only Asia stopover at Marina ONE degrees15 from 10 to 20 March 2022. The vessel is on a world tour to promote sustainable solutions in newer energy technologies.

The arrival of the vessel coincides with the opening of the Franchophonie Festival 2022, an event that celebrates French language and francophone cultures.

MPA Singapore feels honoured to have our Chief Executive, Quah Ley Hoon, grace the opening of the festival. Ley Hoon said, “We are very proud and happy to welcome Energy Observer’s stopover in Singapore. Energy Observer’s expedition around the world as a voice for Green innovations to improve our world is both ambitious and inspirational. This is the first time that Singapore welcomes a hydrogen-powered and zero-emission vessel, and it speaks of the aspiration we have as a global hub port to welcome more of such low or zero-carbon vessels.”
