Bremen-based ideas for the maritime hydrogen economy
04.04.2024
DEN HELDER/BREMEN. Officially launched in Den Helder, Netherlands, in mid-February, the EU’s North Sea Hydrogen Valley Ports project is funded by the EU’s Interreg programme and aims to develop ports into central hubs for green hydrogen and power-to-X fuels like methanol and ammonia. There are also plans to expand a network of ports and stakeholders for sharing experience, with Bremen ports assuming a leading role. The ports in Brest, France, Den Helder, Netherlands, and Esbjerg, Denmark, are also on board. “Our participation in the EU’s North Sea Hydrogen Valley Ports project is not only a springboard for developing and expanding green hydrogen technologies, but also forms the basis for extensive collaboration throughout Europe,” said Kristina Vogt, Bremen’s Senator for Economic Affairs, Ports and Transformation. “We develop concrete solutions for using hydrogen technologies, which enable Bremen ports to make an active contribution to climate protection, whilst promoting economic growth in an ever-evolving maritime industry.”
