heal.abstract	Climate change and fossil fuel depletion are the main reasons leading to hydrogen technology. As society and policymakers become increasingly concerned with greenhouse gases and air pollution, shipping emissions are attracting attention. Hydrogen is considered by many as a potential clean fuel for vessels with its ease of production from renewable electricity. This study evaluates the development of zero-carbon marine fuel production, storage, and fuelling for short-distance ferries from a techno-economic aspect. More clearly, the objective is to provide solutions resulting in the reduction of greenhouse gases and air pollution. The primary purpose of this study is to offer a competitive integrated stand-alone system for zero-carbon propulsion of short-distance ferries employing various plant configurations in terms of hydrogen production capacity and electricity mix. Utilizing the levelized cost of hydrogen and the net present cost for all proposed scenarios, the technical results are used to evaluate economic feasibility. The primary objective is to identify the optimal functioning situation with the lowest levelized cost of hydrogen and perform an Installation example of a standard Ferry Route in Greece by calculating the NPV, IRR, and Payback period	en
