Van den Herik Sliedrecht, a Dutch hydraulic engineering company, has placed an order with zepp.solutions for the development of a hydrogen fuel cell generator set.
The genset will be built around zepp.solutions’ X150 fuel cell system and is designed to power the battery-electric crane vessel: the Prins 6. The genset set will initially be used in an assignment for the Dutch Department of Waterways and Public Works (Rijkswaterstaat). Thanks to the hydrogen-powered generator set, Van den Herik will achieve a projected annual emission reduction of 165 tonnes of CO2 eq. and 2 tonnes of NOx with the deployment of the Prins 6 alone.
The purchase agreement between Van den Herik and zepp.solutions was officially ratified during the InfraTech vakbeurs in Rotterdam at Van den Herik’s stand.
