Abstract: With the green and low carbon transformation of the shipping industry, the importance of the low carbon fuel is gradually emerging. As there is no carbon dioxide emission from ammonia and hydrogen combustion, ammonia and hydrogen are regarded as the promising zero-carbon fuels for shipping. The total cost of the ownership (TCO) models of the ammonia and hydrogen powered ship and the traditional fuel powered ship are established to quantitatively compare the relevant economy and clarify the main influencing factors. The results show that the fuel price is the main factor affecting the economy of ships. The TCO of the ammonia and hydrogen powered ships is about twice that of the traditional fuel powered ships under the current fuel price. The low energy density of the alternative fuels is the main reason that causes this difference. The cost of the alternative fuels will be an important factor in the low carbon transformation of shipping. And the cost reduction of the alternative fuels deserves attention.
