The world of hydrogen is coming to life in Rotterdam
In episode 1, Celwin talks to Randolf Weterings from the Port of Rotterdam about the status of all hydrogen projects in the port of Rotterdam, and to Diederick Luijten from Air Liquide to find about their hydrogen projects.
Producing hydrogen by electrolysis
If we want to use hydrogen, we have to produce it. We can do this via a process called electrolysis. To find out all about this process, Celwin talks to Afkenel Schipstra from Uniper and Rene van der Meer from the PosHYdon project.
Hydrogen carriers
Hydrogen can be bound to various other components, in order to be used in a different way or transported with more ease. These are called hydrogen carriers. But which ones are there, how do we produce them? And what more can we use them for? To find out, Celwin speaks to Marthe Fruytier (Port of Rotterdam Authority) and Feikje Wittermans (Vopak).
Importing and storing hydrogen
In the previous episode, we learned all there is to know about the different hydrogen carriers, which we'll use to import hydrogen in the future. But where are we going to get that hydrogen from, and how will we store it? In this last episode of the season, Celwin talks to Martijn Coopman (Port of Rotterdam Authority) and Robert-Jan Reuvekamp (Air Products) to find out.
