\n

Hydrogen<\/strong> loading tests will begin this January <\/p>\n

from the Port of Valencia\u2019s Hydrogen Generator located on the Xit\u00e0 <\/p>\n

quay.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"PORT<\/p>\n

This procedure, which is being carried out for the first time, will be <\/p>\n

supervised by technicians from Valeciaport, the National Hydrogen Centre, and <\/p>\n

the company Carburos Met\u00e1licos.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The components and systems that make up the hydrogen generator at the Port <\/p>\n

of Valencia will be tested specifically throughout the month using substances <\/p>\n

including nitrogen, helium, and hydrogen.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The container stacker and four-by- four tractor unit prototypes that will <\/p>\n

start operating at the Valencian enclosure this year will be supplied with <\/p>\n

hydrogen as a result of this loading test.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The hydrogen supply station (HRS) has been designed and built by the <\/p>\n

National Hydrogen Centre.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It will include a fixed part which will be dedicated to the reception, <\/p>\n

storage and compression of hydrogen up to delivery pressure (both installed in <\/p>\n

the Bracet de la Xit\u00e0 or Git\u00e0).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It will also have a mobile part which will store the compressed hydrogen <\/p>\n

and include a dispenser of this fuel for refuelling the port machinery.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The operating process of a hydrogen station is similar to refuelling <\/p>\n

conventional vehicles, except that, in this case, the hydrogen is supplied at <\/p>\n

high pressure.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This refuelling station will supply fuel to the machinery that forms part <\/p>\n

of the project being developed by Valenciaport.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

One piece of this equipment is the Reach Stacker vehicle prototype or <\/p>\n

container stacker, which will be tested at MSC Terminal Valencia and run on this <\/p>\n

energy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The other piece of machinery will be a modified version of a typical four- <\/p>\n

by-four tractor unit with a fuel cell that will be tested during loading and <\/p>\n

unloading activities at Valencia Terminal Europa of the Grimaldi Group.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The equipment will arrive in the first quarter of the year and will enable <\/p>\n

testing the use of hydrogen in the terminals for two years.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This initiative is part of H2Ports and it is coordinated by the <\/p>\n

Valenciaport Foundation in close collaboration with the Port Authority. <\/p>\n

Moreover, the initiative is financed by the Clean Hydrogen JU programme of the <\/p>\n

European Union.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Its main objective is to test and validate hydrogen technologies on port <\/p>\n

machinery that will provide applicable and real solutions without affecting the <\/p>\n

performance and safety of port operations and producing zero local <\/p>\n

emissions.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The H2Ports project will involve a total investment of more than \u20ac4 million <\/p>\n

($4.25 million).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In addition to the Valenciaport Foundation and the Port Authority of <\/p>\n

Valencia, it will also involve the research centres; Centro Nacional del <\/p>\n

Hidr\u00f3geno, Atena Distretto Alta Tecnologia Energia Ambiente, the private <\/p>\n

companies MSC Terminal Valencia, Grimaldi Group, Hyster-Yale, Ballard Power <\/p>\n

Systems Europe, Carburos Met\u00e1licos, and Enag\u00e1s.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
