Genevos has secured a contract to supply the complete Hydrogen Package for a groundbreaking hydrogen-electric waste collection vessel in the port of Klaipėda, Lithuania. The initiative, planned to be operational by the final quarter of 2025, aims to introduce innovative sustainable practices in maritime operations. The vessel, measuring 42 meters in length and 10 meters in width, represents a significant step towards zero-emission waste collection. Recognized as the first of its kind, it will utilize hydrogen as the primary fuel following a comprehensive environmental impact assessment. Approval from the Lithuanian Environmental Protection Agency for hydrogen production in Klaipėda sets the stage for environmentally friendly fuel utilization. Genevos' contribution includes the provision of two marine-certified HPM-40 units, serving as range extenders for the vessel. These Hydrogen Power Modules, coupled with a 2,000 kWh battery system and an additional 'H2 brick,' will enhance the vessel's range by 40% at an average speed of 8 knots. The waste collection vessel, operated round-the-clock, is designed to accommodate up to 400 m3 of waste from incoming ships, forwarding it to onshore treatment facilities, thus promoting sustainable waste management practices. With a construction cost of €12 million, the vessel is currently being built at BLRT Grupp and will undergo finalization at Baltic Workboats in Estonia. This transition highlights the collaborative efforts in promoting eco-friendly solutions within the maritime sector. The project signifies a strategic investment towards a greener future, aligning with the sustainability goals of the port of Klaipėda and the broader maritime industry in the Baltic region. The vessel's anticipated role in waste collection and its reliance on hydrogen as a renewable fuel source underscore the positive shift towards sustainable practices in maritime operations.
