A brief description of the institution’s formal community partnership to advance sustainability:
This senior design project focuses on developing a green ferry for Galapagos Inter-Island Transport. The project involves three naval engineering seniors at Stevens Institute of Technology collaborating with four students from ESPOL University in Ecuador and is funded by the United Nations Development Program. The goal is to develop a vessel design with a focus on using non-fossil fuels, and they have developed a hydrogen fuel cell-based electric ferry design. Raju Datla visited ESPOL University and the Galapagos Islands to discuss directly with the collaborators, the island stakeholders, representatives from the mayor’s office, utility company, boat owners and operators, and local residents.
Raju Datla's collaborator from ESPOL University is visiting Stevens soon and so will the ESPOL University President, who will visit Stevens' president and provost. The plan is to expand this partnership into long-term collaboration that includes wind and wave energy technologies and coastal resiliency.
