Climate-friendly shunting

04.04.2024

BREMEN. How do you ensure climate-friendly operation of shunter locomotives at ports in the future? The sH2unter@ports joint project took a careful look at this question in February, when around 40 representatives of railway, consultancy and locomotive leasing companies, funding bodies and the Bremerhaven, Hamburg and other northern German seaports discussed the next steps during a joint workshop at Bremen’s City University of Applied Sciences. Their aim is to have a specific implementation plan in place by the end of the project for making shunting operations carbon-neutral as soon as possible.
