Each of the five participants was able to pursue their own selfish agendas whilst contributing to the collective goal of de-carbonising the maritime traffic using hydrogen. The outcomes were mainly in the research of the feasibility of generating enough electricity and hydrogen to (partially) power a specially adapted diesel engine, but there were concrete improvements to the air quality and operations of the port as well.
