In a remarkable partnership, Future Proof Shipping (FPS) and Nike have unveiled the inaugural inland hydrogen container ship, H2 Barge 1, signaling a significant step towards achieving zero-emission shipping. Nike, on its journey towards zero waste and zero carbon emissions, has teamed up with FPS to expedite this sustainable shipping endeavor.Operating in the bustling Port of Rotterdam, the hydrogen-powered barge epitomizes the vision of Future Proof Shipping, a specialist in zero-emission marine transportation services. Charted by BCTN on behalf of Nike EMEA, the H2 Barge 1 will embark on regular weekly voyages between the Port of Rotterdam and BCTN's inland terminal in Meerhout, Belgium. The deployment of this cutting-edge vessel is projected to curtail greenhouse gas emissions by a staggering 2,000 tons of carbon dioxide annually."This groundbreaking shipping project unequivocally demonstrates that zero-emission, low-impact cargo transportation is not only achievable but also sets a powerful precedent for the industry to emulate Nike's forward-thinking pursuit of zero," remarked Richard Klatten, CEO of Future Proof Shipping, expressing his enthusiasm for the collaboration.Aligned with the objectives of Future Proof Shipping, which aspires to develop a fleet of 10 zero-emission inland and short-sea vessels in the next five years, the H2 Barge 1 signifies a pivotal moment for FPS and the future of shipping. These eco-friendly vessels will be leased to cargo owners and logistic service providers, further promoting sustainable maritime transportation.This partnership between FPS and Nike harmoniously resonates with Nike's "Move To Zero" movement, an ambitious initiative aimed at reducing carbon emissions and offering environmentally conscious products to athletes. By utilizing fuel cells and green hydrogen in lieu of diesel, Nike enhances its inland barge and establishes an ecologically sustainable shipping system through the hydrogen container ship.
