Port of San Antonio to develop green hydrogen plant for its operations

The general manager of Puerto San Antonio, Luis Knaak, and the CEO of the worldwide energy business Solek, Zdenk Sobotka, inked a partnership agreement for the creation of a green hydrogen plant in the sector, which would minimize the carbon footprint left by the port industry’s operations.

San Antonio’s features as a producer of this material were highlighted by the corporation. They further stated that the facility would be fueled with renewable energy and water (H20), the latter of which will dissolve into green hydrogen and oxygen through an electrolysis process. The electrolysis facility would be powered by renewable energy from Solek’s 96MWp Leyda solar photovoltaic project, which is located 22 kilometers from the port, as well as a wind source to provide continuous supply.

“This is a collaborative effort that requires a clear understanding since green energy is on the horizon. “San Antonio is a port that has made a lot of growth, and now that green energy is here, new technology is being promoted as well, one of which is this hydrogen in the future,” said Zdenk Sobotka, the founder and CEO of Solek.

In terms of the agreement’s stages, Solek’s Commercial Manager, Mario Gómez, noted, “it has two stages: the first, whereby we may have access to the dealers to gather information, which consists of identifying the uses and consumptions that may exist on green hydrogen through Puerto San Antonio.”

“The second stage is hydrogen plant size,” Gómez continued, “which may go at modular levels to channel the knowledge gained from the first stage.” The ultimate aim is for the port to be able to produce competitive green hydrogen in order to reduce its carbon impact.”

Héctor Marchant, the head of sustainability for Puerto San Antonio, who was also present at the business, stressed the industry’s future advancements.

“Because of pricing and environmental concerns, we need to examine what sort of fuel will be utilized in the future.” We will be able to size what will be utilized in hydrogen and at what price as a result of this deal. He said, “It will allow us to have a powerful option to give to the various terminals.”

This effort aims to make San Antonio the first port in the country to operate entirely on green hydrogen.
