Gozo - Malta
To achieve the goals for CO2 reduction by 55% by 2030 set by the EU, Malta is looking to reduce their dependence on liquid natural gas for all forms of energy.
The neighboring island belonging to the Republic of Malta, Gozo, is looking to lead by example.
Together with the Malta Foundation for Transport W&P Engineering is developing a small-scale lighthouse project on Gozo showcasing the integrated usage of renewable energy production, hydrogen storage, reconversion and waste heat usage. For this, a dual charging and fueling solution is being set up to provide a luxurious hotel chain brand with both EV charging for guests and a hydrogen filling station supply a Hydrogen Fuel Cell vehicle transfer service to and from the airport. The required energy is harvested on-site implementing previously unused areas for photovoltaic installations.
Though only on a small scale, this project bears the potential for over 1.18 Million km of CO2-free and climate friendly personal mobility.
