HHLA launches innovation cluster to drive decarbonisation of handling and transport processes

Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA), together with partners, has launched Clean Ports & Logistics (CPL) to test hydrogen-powered port logistics equipment.

Supported and sponsored by the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital infrastructure, HHLA will manage the cluster with the aim to reduce emissions in port handling and the associated logistics chains.

Angela Titzrath, chairwoman of HHLA’s executive board, said: “Port handling and heavy goods logistics will make their contribution to climate protection and improving the quality of life in urban areas. The key element here is the decarbonisation of logistics.
