Abstract
For the application of fuel cell systems on ship which is future eco-friendly ship technology, it is need that the modification of relevant laws and regulations with relevant technical development. This paper reviews the trend of fuel cell development, SOLAS and IACS UR/UI as a international regulations, international standardization trend such as IMO MEPC, IMO BLG and major classification rules, the consideration for the standard development of ship fuel cell systems, the implications for application of fuel cell systems on ships in Korea. The IGF Code which is developing in the IMO included fuel cell, and thus Korean government and related company should participate in the codification. The analysis of development of IMO's relevant regulations also needed for the preparations.
