by Ship & Bunker News Team
Tuesday February 2, 2021 A floating green hydrogen production facility to refuel ships may soon be coming to the
Netherlands. SolarDuck plan to build the facility near the port of IJzendoorn, the companies said in a press release on Friday. The Province of Gelderland will provide
350,000 euros of funding for the project. SolarDuck will provide four linked platforms, each equipped with 39 solar panels, which will provide power to a
10 kw electrolyzer producing hydrogen. Testing will start from April 2021. The hydrogen will be bonded to an oil-like liquid allowing it to be transferred more easily.
