The aim is for Fundaci\u00f3n Valenciaport, the MSCTV terminal and Valencia dockers to familiarise themselves with the machine\u2019s operation before it\u2019s sent to the Port of Valencia to begin testing in real life operations.<\/p>\n
Training on the reach stacker has been performed both virtually and by a visit to the Hyster-Yale Group facilities in Weeze, Germany.<\/p>\n
Test project<\/strong><\/p>\n When it goes into operation, the hydrogen-powered reach stacker will be tested over a period of two years at the MSCTV terminal.<\/p>\n The mobile Hydrogen Refuelling Station, developed by CNH2 and managed by Carburos Met\u00e1licos, will guarantee fuel supply for both for this pilot project and for the 4\u00d74 hydrogen terminal tractor that will be tested at Valencia Terminal Europa, part of Grimaldi Group.<\/p>\n Hyster\u2019s reach stacker is expected to offer comparable performance to a conventional truck in terms of capacity and lift and driving speeds, helping to support similar productivity levels.<\/p>\n It\u2019s expected that the hydrogen powered reach stacker will provide up to one day of operation before refill is required. It\u2019s also being developed to comply with the standard H2 filling station connection (SAE standard), enabling global use.<\/p>\n The European project \u201cH2PORTS – Implementing Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Technologies in Ports\u201d is an initiative coordinated by Fundaci\u00f3n Valenciaport in close collaboration with the Port Authority of Valencia and financed by the Clean Hydrogen JU, the successor of Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Joint Undertaking (FCH JU) program.<\/p>\n Its main objective is to test and validate hydrogen technologies on port machinery that allow to have applicable and real solutions without affecting the performance and safety of port operations and producing zero local emissions.<\/p>\n The H2PORTS project will entail a total investment of \u20ac4 million and involves, in addition to Fundaci\u00f3n Valenciaport and the Port Authority of Valencia, the Centro Nacional del Hidr\u00f3geno, and the private companies MSC Terminal Valencia, Grimaldi Group, Hyster-Yale, Atena Distretto Alta Tecnologia Energia Ambiente, Ballard Power Systems Europe, Carburos Met\u00e1licos and Enag\u00e1s.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Port of Valencia stakeholders have been\u00a0training up on Hyster\u2019s hydrogen reach stacker which is being developed as part of the European H2PORTS project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":18,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,22],"tags":[],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-17","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-products-services-greenport"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=17"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3101,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17\/revisions\/3101"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/18"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=17"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=17"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=17"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=17"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
