2022 Shakedown
Meet the innovators and their results from the PortXL program in Rotterdam, the maritime capital of Europe.
RESULTS OF OUR 2022 COHORT
CleanSubSea
Envirocart™ System
It enables the in-water removal, capture, containment and filtration of marine biofouling from a vessel’s hull without damaging the antifouling paint or polluting the surrounding marine environment. No fuel nor time is wasted driving to a dry dock location.
QuinteQ Eenergy
Flywheel energy storage
This technology based on Boeing developments that realizes up to a fifteen-fold improvement on energy storage, applicable in energy systems and grids worldwide. QuinteQ signed a pilot contract with Port of Rotterdam Authority,
Ensemble Analytics
Workforce allocation platform
Platform for ports that assimilates data and produces detailed advice for real time decision making on workforce allocation, training and investment. Ensemble Analytics signed a partnership with Boskalis.
ConexBird
Vibration analysis hardware
The solution is supported by a software component, designed for mounting on container spreaders, and able to withstand the harsh conditions spreaders are subjected to.
MatchClick
AI based solutions
Develops an innovative AI model, which we call SPADE, which is effective in mixing sparse aquatic data with dense data like the one produced by the Copernicus satellites. Matchclick signed a pilot contract with Port of Rotterdam Authority.
Finsulate
Antifouling product
An environmentally-friendly physical adhesive barrier is applied on vessels to the hull with a 5 year expected lifetime. During the program, Finsulate signed a collaboration with Van Oord.
Paiori
Crane AI
Provides 3D scans of the inventory and environment and cameras detecting the position of the load. Their technology allows the crane operator to avoid mistakes or train for special occurrences.
DecisionHall
Climate Action Center
Assembles a corporation of stakeholders with global reach who employ the latest Digital Engineering techniques to significantly reduce the risk, cost, and time required to run complex sustainability and climate resilience projects.
Rombit STUDIO
Digital Products
Co-creates innovative and sustainable digital products which create value and increase efficiency for their customers. By applying digitalisation and predictive analytics technology, the company connects devices and platforms to existing infrastructure.
Noble Gas Systems
Compressed gas storage systems
Recently, the company demonstrated its latest generation of conformable gas tanks, which can be configured into existing vehicle architectures. During the program, Noble Gas Systems was working together with Shell.
Maymaan
Engine Technology
It is fueled by 70% water and 30% ethanol. Their technology is designed to systematically decrease operational costs and significantly reduce your carbon footprint. During the program, MayMaan signed a partnership with VattenFall.
gbms
Container warning system
Focuses on developing systems that can reduce the number of containers lost at sea. They develop warning systems by understanding ship motions, physics, software, and sensor technology development. GBMS signed a partnership with JR Shipping.
12TOZERO
Floating wind foundation
Specifically designed to combine buoyancy and hydrogen storage in a single structure. The combination of these functions in a single platform provides that basis for a reliable hydrogen supply for the decarbonisation of marine applications and port-based industries.
