The Port of Rochefort-Tonnary-Charentes in France has embarked on an innovative endeavor by utilizing hydrogen to power one of its cranes, marking a significant step towards cleaner operations. By adopting dynaCERT’s HydraGEN technology, which converts distilled water into hydrogen and oxygen gases for engine use, the port seeks to curb its greenhouse gas emissions linked to crane operations and other machinery. The decision to test the impact of the hydrogen technology on emissions showcases a proactive approach towards sustainability and efficiency. With support from the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region, the port aims to equip all five cranes with this technology by the end of the year, highlighting a commitment to environmental responsibility and modernization. Gérard Pons, President of the Rochefort-Tonnay-Charente Commercial Port Joint Association, emphasized the dual benefits of reducing the port's environmental footprint and achieving fuel savings through this eco-friendly initiative. The project aligns with the port's strategic vision of remaining competitive, attractive to businesses, and forward-looking. Additionally, the collaborative efforts of dynaCERT with green hydrogen partners and its expansion into the European market signify a growing trend towards sustainable practices in the logistics industry. This development is part of a larger global movement towards decarbonization, with various ports worldwide, including those in the US, Denmark, Sweden, and Germany, engaging in similar projects to enhance environmental sustainability in maritime operations.
