Ships operating near coastal regions or inland
seas are of particular concern, as their emissions can disperse into coastal
areas, leading to adverse health impacts, especially on the human respiratory
system. These emissions primarily result from the continued use of
fossil-based, low-quality fuels with high carbon content, such as heavy fuel
oil (HFO) and marine diesel oil (MDO). Hydrogen stands out as a promising
future marine fuel due to its carbon-free molecular structure. This study aims
to assess the potential of the Marmara Sea Region for green hydrogen production
using wind energy-based seawater electrolysis. Marmara Island is identified as
a suitable location due to its proximity to major navigation routes and its
hydrogen bunkering potential for both transiting vessels and ships operating
within the Marmara Sea. A single wind turbine can generate 44.4 GW of
electricity annually, corresponding to approximately 308.6 tonnes of hydrogen
production. Eight wind turbines are proposed for the selected area, resulting
in an annual electricity generation of 129.6 GW and a total green hydrogen
production of 2,468.8 tonnes. The findings demonstrate the potential of Marmara
Island to function as a green hydrogen hub in the Marmara Sea.
