The Klaipėda State Seaport Authority in Lithuania has marked a significant milestone by launching the country's first green hydrogen and electricity-powered ship. This innovative tanker, with a length of 42 metres and width of 10 metres, is designed to collect liquid waste such as storm water, sewage, sludge, and garbage from vessels entering the port. Its advanced features include special tanks and a modern rainwater treatment plant, enabling the treated water to be transferred to the city's sewage treatment plants. The ship's power system comprises two electric motors powered by 2,000 kWh batteries and a hydrogen fuel cell system. This setup allows the tanker to operate in the port of Klaipėda for up to 36 hours without the need for additional charging, enhancing operational efficiency and environmental sustainability. This pioneering project, valued at €12 million ($12.5 million), is a joint effort between the Port Authority, West Baltic Shipyard, and Baltic Workboats. The collaboration aims to revolutionize waste management practices in the port, emphasizing the adoption of green technologies and energy-efficient solutions. By utilizing green hydrogen and electricity, the ship represents a step forward in promoting eco-friendly operations within the maritime industry, setting a positive example for sustainable development in the region.
