Marinetrans new sponsor of TU Delft Hydro Motion Team
Supporting hydrogen propulsion and foiling technologies development to reduce emissions
International maritime logistics provider Marinetrans is now partner of the foiling hydrogen boat project of Delft Technical University. Together with other maritime companies Marinetrans now supports this diverse team of students to compete with afoiling hydrogen-power boat in the Monaco Energy Boat Challenge, showing the maritime industry practically viable sustainable propulsion solutions.
Steven Forsberg, Managing Director at Marinetrans, says: “The reasons to sponsor the TU Delft Hydro Motion Teamare clear. As a marine logistics company we are aware of our own footprint and the environmental impact we make when handling global transport projects for our customers. Since we formulated our ‘Going Green’ mission, we actively seek to align ourselves with sustainable technologies, projects and suppliers. Innovative propulsion systems and other emission-reducing maritime systems, software or equipment are of key interest to that mission.This project, the technical developments behind it and the vessel itself provideall of that. A great example of what is possible today, especially with real teamwork.”
At Marinetrans, several emission-reduction schemes are currently unfolding, incl. its own CO2 Offset Programmethat clients can partake in to counter the environmental effects of their operations and the transports handled by Marinetrans to make them happen.
