BRAKE. With a workshop on hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO), the Maritime Cluster Northern Germany launched the initiative for an HVO model region Unterweser this March in Brake.

According to Professor Iven Krämer, Head of the Port Economy and Logistics for the Senator for Economic Affairs, Ports and Transformation in Bremen, the initial HVO test runs have been promising.
