To commemorate the prediction by Jules Verne, that hydrogen would become the fuel of the future, the Cleaner Ocean Foundation is promoting a zero emission racing formula, where competing teams attempt to power around the world in a boat, without any restrictions as to design or size, provided that the vessels use a renewable form of hydrogen, such as: compressed gas, cryogenic liquid hydrogen, methanol, ammonia or peroxide. Renewable means derived from solar, wind or wave power, or net zero, by way of a sustainable form of carbon offsetting.

The 150th anniversary of Verne's prediction is in 2024. Applications and registration of teams open on the 15th of January 2024.
