Hydrogen investment in Swedish container port

Ports of Stockholm and the cleantech company CMB.TECH are joining forces in a hydrogen collaboration at the Swedish box port, Stockholm Norvik Port.

According to the statement, the investment in hydrogen will encompass port operations and will also expand service offerings to shipping companies and haulage firms, as well as other customers and collaboration partners.

“The goal is for Stockholm Norvik Port to be Sweden’s most climate-smart and sustainable port,” said the statement.

The investment means the start of being able to offer customers and collaboration partners the possibility to convert to hydrogen, by building a hydrogen fuelling station adjacent to the port.

In the initial phase, port vehicles will be converted to run on green hydrogen, while the first hydrogen-fuelled terminal truck is planned to be in operation at Stockholm Norvik Port in 2023.

“Hydrogen will play a crucial role in converting to fossil fuel-free transport, both on land and at sea. We are therefore extremely pleased to announce this partnership with CMB.TECH and this drive for hydrogen. This is entirely aligned with the ambitious environmental goals of Ports of Stockholm for operations to be fossil fuel-free by 2030,” explained Anna König Jerlmyr, Mayor of Stockholm.

Alexander Saverys, CEO of CMB.TECH, stated, “Being able to enter into this partnership with Ports of Stockholm at the new freight port, Stockholm Norvik, is a pleasure. This is the first port in Sweden we have worked with, and we hope to be able to contribute with our knowledge and experience in converting from diesel to hydrogen.”
