Hydrogen Mobility and Infrastructure Company

Decentralizing Hydrogen Production and Fueling

  Sea Cheetah's decentralized hydrogen generation method addresses widespread supply chain and pricing challenges and recognizes that conventional pathways of generating “green” hydrogen may not be feasible in most coastal and, in particular, island locations. 


Our unique integrated Hydrogen Fueling System (HFS™) uses the available localized resources for production of green hydrogen that fuels Sea Cheetah’s WIGE Vessels.  

Hydrogen will be either generated at H2Hub™, or replenished via delivery by  Sea Cheetah's own hydrogen fueling vessels. 


Replenishment can also be done by third party hydrogen-powered vessels as part of Sea Cheetah partners' supply chain to multiple locations (keeping Scope 3 Emissions low). 

H2Hub™

To achieve the availability of green hydrogen at point of use, we have developed the H2Hub™.  These are 

“Pit Stops” for Sea Cheetah’s Refueling and Replenishment Operations, receiving on site produced green hydrogen into their compression tanks as they moor alongside the H2Hub™.

What is a WIGE (wing-in-ground-effect) Vessel?

Not an Airplane

Speed & Comfort, Cost Efficiency & Long Range

Not an Airplane

As much as Wing-and-Ground Effect vessels look like aircraft, they are certified

or regulated by marine authorities, such as US Coast Guard (and other maritime authorities), based on the International Maritime Organization (IMO) 2018 global regulatory framework (https://wwwcdn.imo.org/localresources/en/OurWork/Safety/Documents/MSC.1-CIRC.1592.pdf)


Wing-in-Ground-Effect vessels require a MARINE CAPTAIN license and not an 

AIRCRAFT PILOT license.

Speed & Comfort, Cost Efficiency & Long Range

Not an Airplane

The best word to describe

the experience of a

wing-in-ground effect vessel is, without exaggeration,

"phenomenal".  It is unlike

any sensation you’ve ever experienced in your life. 


Ground effect is created

due to the forward motion

of the vessel and operates practically on continuous cushion of air.

Speed & Comfort, Cost Efficiency & Long Range

 Wing-in-Ground-Effect crafts achieve speeds above 135 knots 

(250 Kph / 155 Mph ) and fly below 10 feet over the crest of the highest wave for hundreds of miles without need to refuel hydrogen.


Compared to traditional aircraft and boats, Wing-in Ground-Effect vessels travel with unprecedented cost-efficiency. 





WIGE - Back to the Future

Spruce Goose USA (1947)

 

First major experience of Ground Effect


Cruise speed: 250 mph / 220 kn

Range: 3,000 mi / 2,600 nmi

Payload: 300,000 lbs / 150 tons

Wing-in-Ground Effect (WIGE) vessels are a unique class of maritime craft that utilizes the aerodynamic principle of ground effect, where lift is enhanced and drag is reduced when flying close to the surface. 


Unlike traditional aircraft or marine vessels, WIGE vessels do not require extensive runway or port infrastructure.

Unlike traditional aircraft or marine vessels, WIGE vessels do not require extensive runway or port infrastructure. 


WIGE vessel ability to carry heavy payloads over long distances, coupled with the reduced regulatory requirements, makes them ideal for applications in coastal passenger transportation, cargo delivery, and search-and-rescue missions.

Heart of a Boat - Looks of a Plane

    

The International Maritime Organization has studied the application of rules based on the International Code of Safety for High-Speed Craft (HSC code) which was developed for fast ships such as hydrofoils, hovercraft, catamarans and the like.  In 2005, in conjunction with the Federal Aviation Association (FAA),

it was determined since the FAA only regulates flying vehicles above 50 ft., WIGE vessels

fall out of the FAA’s jurisdiction. 


Why Now? Our Time Has Come!

Why use Ground Effect, and why now? Recent advances in computing power, the availability and cost of composite materials, including carbon fiber, increased speed and lower costs of satellite communications, plus consumer demand for fast, novel means of convenient transportation all are making WIGE phenomena commercially viable and timely as the next big means of passenger and cargo transportation in coastal and island markets worldwide.

Global demand for green energy has never been stronger. The clean tech and green technology revolution that started over 20 years ago with electric battery start-ups has largely failed to reach critical mass quickly.  


Hybrid battery solutions are not the ideal answer to our clean energy needs, but they gave birth to the concept of Hydrogen as a solution for powerful high-volume transportation at a fraction of today’s battery costs.  


Sea Cheetah will play a leading role and demonstrate the value of Hydrogen derived from water, as well as the zero carbon emissions it leaves behind.
