We are building the Smart Hydrogen Hub, for and with M4H
An installation for the production of green hydrogen, with a smart energy network and all the associated infrastructure, will be built on the M4H business park (Merwe-Vierhavens) during the course of this year. The intention is for this large test facility to gain more experience with the production, processing and delivery of this green fuel. Platform Zero, Battolyser Systems, the Port Authority, Sunrock, the City of Rotterdam and other partners are working together on the Smart Hydrogen Hub, an important piece of the puzzle for the energy transition. Leonoor: “We are building the Smart Hydrogen Hub, for and with M4H. This local character is exactly what makes it so fantastic. The green hydrogen we’re going to be making here could possibly instantly be used by our neighbours at the Stadshaven Brewery in the future.” Mare: “Or used to refuel Watertaxi boats and the Shipping and Transport College training ship along the waterfront.”
According to Mare, M4H is a perfect area for this project. “Thre’s already a great deal of energy transition industriousness here and you can find innovative companies and businesses all over the site. We have a list of more than 100 startups and scale-ups which can play a role in this project".
