It could also eventually roll out hydrogen at its inland hubs for long-haul trucks, when and if hydrogen versions become more readily available. In the meantime, the introduction of Auckland Transport s trial hydrogen bus has prompted the port to build an interim refuelling station, with hydrogen being brought in from elsewhere.
RICKY WILSON/STUFF Green hydrogen is made by splitting water using electricity, at BOC s facility in Glenbrook south of Auckland. Rosie Mercer, the port s general manager of sustainability, said the port wants to become zero carbon by 2040 and saw synergies with Obayashi s work in Taupo. Atlhough critics of hydrogen point out that it takes a lot of electricity to make, Mercer says the fuel has its place at the port which operates around the clock.
