Setting the course for the future of shunting

BREMEN. “sH2unter@ports” – behind this cryptic name lies a completed project with the question: can the shunting of locomotives also be done in a climate-friendly way? Robert Howe, MD of bremenports, said: “The ‘SH2unter@ports’ project conducted valuable and practical basic research and established what is actually possible. One thing is clear, whether hydrogen- or electric/battery-powered: both versions require enormous investment in converting or building corresponding locomotives.” The final report by the six partners will provide further details shortly.
