Port of Den Helder as a logistics pit stop
Port of Den Helder plays a crucial role as a logistics link between the North Sea and the Wadden Sea. As a logistics pit stop for offshore activities and a Wadden port for waterway management, nature conservation, and recreation, sustainability is a priority. The hydrogen pilot project offers a unique opportunity to make a well-informed decision regarding the transition to hydrogen in future business operations, based on our own experiences and experiments.
