The Port of Amsterdam recently achieved a significant milestone by conducting the first hydrogen bunkering operation in the Netherlands for the superyacht Breakthrough. The 118.8-meter-long vessel, equipped with a 3.2 MW hydrogen fuel cell system, was supplied with liquid hydrogen at Feadship. The bunkering process, facilitated by Air Products using a truck, involved an initial delivery of liquid hydrogen followed by multiple refueling operations. The hydrogen fuel cell system on Breakthrough operates without combustion, utilizing an electrochemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to generate electricity. This process ensures that the vessel is powered with zero emissions, with water vapor being the only byproduct. Milembe Mateyo, Director of CNB and State Harbour Master of the North Sea Canal, expressed pride in the successful bunkering operation, highlighting the demonstration of hydrogen as a viable solution for achieving zero-emission sailing. This operation signifies a step forward in advancing sustainable practices within the maritime industry, emphasizing the potential of hydrogen as an environmentally friendly fuel source. The event marks a positive development in promoting innovative and sustainable technologies for maritime transportation, setting a precedent for future adoption of hydrogen in the sector.
