An autonomous hydrogen-fueled submarine could help to greatly reduce emissions from shipping, a report by the BBC explains. The submarine, developed by Oceanways, is one of several winners in a government competition aimed at tackling the industry's carbon footprint.
Oceanways received a £380,000 prize to aid them in the development of a self-driving submarine that delivers parcels by submerging itself 165 feet below the surface of the sea and taking shipping routes — such as the one from Belfast to Glasgow — to get to its destination. The submersible vehicle can even swim through shallow waters that large cargo ships cannot navigate.
