In Germany, Mabanaft, an independent and integrated energy company, has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Fairplay Towage Group, one of Europe’s largest tugboat operators, to supply hydrogen to their new tugs in the Port of Hamburg from 2025.
In the coming years, Fairplay Towage intends to add tugboats to its fleet in the Port of Hamburg capable of running on hydrogen.
The Mabanaft Group, a supplier of marine fuels and operator of tank terminals in the Port of Hamburg, said it intends to supplement its range of marine fuels with hydrogen and to use its tank terminals in Hamburg for this purpose, in order to be able to supply Fairplay Towage with hydrogen.
In November 2022, Mabanaft announced its intention to build an ammonia import terminal in the Port of Hamburg, the first step in the development of New Energy Gate, a terminal for sustainable hydrogen products that will make it possible for Hamburg to import large quantities of climate-friendly energy.
