At the international exhibition "Neva-2023", which started today in St. Petersburg, the corporation "AK Bars" presented a model of an innovative excursion boat. Its feature is a power plant operating on hydrogen fuel cells. This vessel is designed to carry both passengers and tourist groups along inland waterways and can accommodate up to 10 people.
Renat Mistakhov, CEO of the corporation, previously announced that "AK Bars" plans to complete the construction of the first hydrogen-powered passenger vessel by the end of this year.

Construction began in February 2023.

- Maximum speed on calm water reaches 12 km/h
- Trip duration - up to 5 hours
