On 24 February, a kick-off meeting for a new regional green ferry connection was held at the INP, organised by CAMPFIRE and the University and Hanseatic City of Greifswald. Against the backdrop of the ongoing development of the tourism concept in the coastal region, the participants are striving to establish an emission-free ferry connection between the Greifswald Museum Harbour, the former fishing village of Wieck and Ludwigsburg Castle. The aim is to operate an emission-free ferry route of approximately 5 km along the Ryck River and approximately 3 km across the Dänische Wieck of the Greifswald Bodden in the future. Important impetus for the implementation of a ferry connection using fuel cells and hydrogen was provided to the partners by Professor Gerd Holbach from the Institute for Land and Sea Transport – Ship and Marine Technology at the Technical University of Berlin. We would like to thank Professor Holbach and all other participants in the meeting for the inspiring discussions and look forward to further cooperation.
