液化空气和鹿特丹港发布合作伙伴关系，以培养氢气动力的卡车和基础设施

Air Liquide and the Port of Rotterdam Authority announce the launch of a jointly created initiative, which aims at enabling 1,000 hydrogen-powered zero-emission trucks on the roads connecting the Netherlands, Belgium, and western Germany by 2025. Several partners representing the whole supply chain, from truck manufacturers such as VDL Groep, Iveco/Nikola to transport companies Vos Logistics, Jongeneel Transport and HN Post, as well as leading fuel cell suppliers have already agreed to join. This is one of the largest projects in Europe for the development of hydrogen trucks and related infrastructure and will contribute to improve air quality by reducing by an estimated amount of more than 100,000 tonnes CO2 emissions per year, which is equivalent to 110 million kilometers driven

为了让1000辆氢动力卡车the road, out of which 500 are expected to be based in the Port of Rotterdam area, the related infrastructure needs to be developed and deployed, which envisages 25 high capacity hydrogen stations to connect the Netherlands, Belgium, and western Germany. The project also aims to include the necessary electrolysis capacity to produce low-carbon hydrogen. The companies represented in the initiative will jointly perform the feasibility study of this whole value chain.

迄今为止，该项目将合作伙伴与补充专业知识进行伙伴，包括氢生产，通过灌装站，卡车制造商，运输公司和燃料电池制造商进行重型应用。液化空气和鹿特丹港期待，并邀请更多缔约方在未来几个月内加入这一举措。他们将在一起将有助于减少公路运输的碳排放作为氢气作为清洁和可持续的替代能源载体。项目合作伙伴的最终投资决定预计将于2022年底预计。

Hydrogen is one of the energy sources that constitutes a solution to meet the challenge of clean transportation. It enables the reduction of greenhouse gases, pollution in cities and dependency on fossil fuels. It is particularly suited for intensively used heavy duty vehicles.

François Jackow, Executive Vice President and a member of the Air Liquide Group’s Executive Committee, said:

"Fighting climate change is central to the mission of Air Liquide and we are developing a wide range of solutions. In energy transition, we are convinced that hydrogen is essential. For heavy-duty transport, hydrogen will play a significant role and offer the path to a sustainable, carbon-neutral age of mobility. This alliance demonstrates the commitment of the parties to join forces towards the common ambition to fight against climate change. Air Liquide will bring to the project its unique expertise in the mastery of the entire hydrogen chain developed over the past 50 years.”

Allard Castelein, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority, said:

“This project gives substance to our ambition to make transport more sustainable. With this coalition of partners that complement one another, we can give zero emission road transport a boost. In doing so we take our responsibility as Europe's largest port and help local, national and European authorities to realize their ambitions.”

液化空气对氢能的承诺
在过去的50年里，Air Liquide开发了独特的专业知识，使其能够掌握整个氢气供应链，从生产和存储到分销和最终用户的应用程序的开发，从而有助于氢气作为清洁能源的广泛使用，特别是移动性。液化空气已经设计并安装了世界各地的120多个站点。氢是符合清洁运输挑战的替代方案，从而有助于提高空气质量。用于燃料电池，氢气与空气中的氧气相结合以产生电力，仅发出水。它不会在使用点产生任何污染：零温室气体，零粒子和零噪声。氢提供了对城市地区可持续移动和当地污染构成的挑战的具体响应。
