“We do not sell these products ourselves; it is the demonstrators themselves that decide who they partner up with,” the port said in the statement to WorldCargo News.
As previously reported by WorldCargo News, last week marked the signing of the first concessionaires for NextGen Demo, the innovation hub situated within the NextGen District at the heart of the Antwerp port. Specifically, Power to Hydrogen and TripleW have opted to utilize the port environment for testing their projects in energy transition and circularity.
The Port of Antwerp-Bruges clarified to WorldCargo News how Power to Hydrogen and TripleW’s green products will be utilized for port operations.
“For a company to be selected for a NextGen Demo concession, it needs to prove that the product/technology has a positive added value for the Antwerp harbour cluster. So, the end goal indeed has to be that the green products are used in our industrial cluster,” the port commented. “We don’t know exactly which companies will be using the green products in the end, but it will be in our cluster (industrial or port operations).”
“We do not sell these products ourselves; it is the demonstrators themselves that decide who they partner up with,” the Port of Antwerp-Bruges concluded in the statement to WorldCargo News.
Power to Hydrogen aims to accelerate the transition to a green hydrogen economy through AEM (anion exchange membrane) electrolysis. Meanwhile, TripleW has developed an industrial process to produce lactic acid entirely from food waste and seeks to broaden the application of this innovative technology to a wider range of food waste streams.
