GreenTransit - Wick Harbour green hydrogen offshore wind crew transfer vessel port demonstrator

GreenTransport是一项合作可行性研究，旨在展示一艘氢燃料船员转运船(CTV)，该船从苏格兰凯斯内斯威克运营，为588兆瓦的比阿特丽斯离岸风电场提供服务。CTV被广泛依赖于海岸和风力发电场之间的海运物流，以运输技术人员和部件。该项目将计划在英国首次真实展示氢气CTV和陆上加油基础设施，并将于2025年3月实施。绿色交通将探索CTV氢气使用的运输、存储和交付方法，包括安全和高效运行所需的基础设施。绿色运输公司受益于与上交所可再生能源公司的戈登布什氢能项目完全一致，该项目将从附近的戈登布什陆上风力发电场生产和供应绿色氢气。绿色运输公司将展示从生产到最终使用的整个氢气价值链所需的所有关键创新，这是英国海上风船行业的首个创新，氢气将取代海上天然气油。这项可行性研究将为迅速扩大的海上风能海洋排放的广泛脱碳铺平道路，并对更广泛的英国运输和航运行业具有重要意义。在英国，据Ore Catapult估计，到2030年，闭路电视数量将从今天的C100增加到186，到2050年增加到383。绿色运输公司将处于海上可再生能源和海运行业前沿的合作伙伴聚集在一起，目前负责运营超过25台CTV，为超过1GW的海上风电提供服务。该财团拥有所需的广泛的技术、运营、商业和项目管理经验，并可明显接触到广泛的利益相关者。该合作伙伴包括离岸船舶运营商(上交所可再生能源公司的合资网站-Beatrice Offshore Wind Farm)、一家绿色氢气生产商(SSE Renewables)、一家拥有海事领域现有客户的燃料分销商(Simpson Oils)、以及拥有欧洲海洋能源中心(EMEC)专业知识的已成立的能源业港务局(Wick Harbour Authority)。这将确保所采取的方法是严格和有重点的，能够在2025年3月之前在比亚特丽斯风电场进行示范。

GreenTransit is a collaborative feasibility study for the demonstration of a hydrogen fuelled crew transfer vessel (CTV) operating from Wick, Caithness, Scotland to service the 588MW Beatrice Offshore Wind Farm. CTVs are relied upon extensively for marine logistics between shore and the wind farm for the transportation of technicians and parts. The project will plan for the first real-world demonstration of a hydrogen CTV and onshore refuelling infrastructure in the UK and will be implemented by March 2025\.GreenTransit will explore transport, storage and delivery methodology for hydrogen use in CTVs including the required infrastructure for safe and efficient operations. GreenTransit benefits from full alignment with SSE Renewables' Gordonbush Hydrogen Project that will produce and supply green hydrogen from the nearby Gordonbush onshore wind farm. GreenTransit will demonstrate all the critical innovation needed across the full hydrogen value-chain, from production to end-use, a UK first in the offshore wind vessel sector, with hydrogen replacing Marine Gas Oil.This feasibility study will pave the way for the widespread decarbonisation of rapidly expanding offshore wind maritime emissions and be relevant to the wider UK transport and shipping sectors. In the UK, CTV numbers are estimated by ORE Catapult to increase from c100 today to 186 by 2030 and 383 by 2050\. CTVs currently contribute significantly to an estimated 284kt CO2e/year of operations and maintenance emissions.GreenTransit brings together partners at the forefront of the offshore renewables and maritime industries currently responsible for operating more than 25 CTVs servicing over 1GW of offshore wind. This consortium has the required breadth of technical, operational, commercial and project management experience along with demonstrable access to a wide range of stakeholders. The partnership includes offshore vessels operator (SSE Renewables' Joint Venture site - Beatrice Offshore Wind Farm), a green hydrogen producer (SSE Renewables), a fuel distributor (Simpson Oils) with existing customers in the maritime sector and an established energy sector harbour authority (Wick Harbour Authority) with the expertise of the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC), a research and technology organisation focussed on delivering hydrogen, energy and maritime projects.This project team is supported by third parties Abbott Risk Consultants providing independent technical Safety, Engineering and Risk Management consultancy and from Pareto Shipbrokers - vessels experts. This will ensure that the approach taken is rigorous and focused enabling demonstration on the Beatrice windfarm by March 2025\.
