Stockholm wants more hydrogen


It is a coalition involving three partners. The Ports of Stockholm, Volvo Penta and CMB.Tech are collaborating to jointly pilot and operate ro-ro tractors running on hydrogen-diesel dual fuel powertrains.

 

The investment is taking place in Stockholm Norvik Port, with the first pilot ro-ro tractor due to be delivered in 2023. In the pilot, CMB.tech will modify the newly built ro-ro tractor, powered by Volvo Penta’s D8 engines, with a hydrogen system before the machine is delivered to Ports of Stockholm.

 

"Together we can put into operation some of the first ro-ro tractors in the world that run on hydrogen fuel. The hydrogen investment is in line with Ports of Stockholm’s ambitious environmental goal of running a fossil-free operation from 2030,” says Johan Wallén, chief commercial officer at Ports of Stockholm.
