HYDEA project, supported by the Interreg Atlantic Area, launched a new report to identify opportunities for the development of the hydrogen economy in Atlantic Ports, namely in Brest (France), Leixões (Portugal), Vigo and Seville (Spain). It concludes that the pilot ports could play a strategic role in the hydrogen supply chain, facilitating regional distribution and contributing to the development of a broader hydrogen economy.
The report is based on direct interviews. Among the most prominent opportunities for hydrogen integration are production and distribution points, mobility in heavy-duty vehicles and ships, integration into port cargo handling equipment, and refuelling stations. It was also possible to conclude that these new technologies could provide environmental benefits by reducing CO₂ emissions and enhancing energy efficiency.
