The regional development agency of South-Holland InnovationQuarter organised and facilitated the cooperation within a diverse group of 25 companies and knowledge institutions that are working together within SH2IPDRIVE on a broad and ambitious innovation project to accelerate the introduction of hydrogen as an alternative energy carrier for ships.
With a total budget of 34 million euros, extensive research is being carried out into the application of hydrogen on board ships and the acceleration of the movement towards zero-emission shipping.
This lays the foundation for a strong maritime hydrogen sector in the Netherlands. This project is part of the so-called Maritime Master Plan.
