Hydrogen Refuelling Station at HHLA Container Terminal Tollerort

The hydrogen refuelling station at HHLA Container Terminal Tollerort provides the necessary infrastructure to accelerate the transition to emission-free heavy goods logistics and port operations and further advance the decarbonisation of logistics.

Equipment such as straddle carriers, empty container stackers, forklift trucks, reach stackers, tractor units and trucks can be efficiently refuelled with green hydrogen at 350 bar in the Port of Hamburg. The refuelling station is open to the public for commercial vehicles and thus offers other companies the opportunity to test climate-friendly transport solutions. The HHLA launched the HHLA Hydrogen Network project in 2020, to the potential of hydrogen in its its own business segments and beyond. This project forms the framework for all hydrogen activities at HHLA.
