Name of the Project
HyperPort cargo solution.

Location
Germany.

Project Owner/s
The project is a partnership between terminal operator Hamburger Hafen und Logistik AG (HHLA), and transport and technology company Hyperloop Transport Technologies (HyperloopTT).

Project Description
The HyperPort system is a plug-and-play solution for port operators, which will be capable of transporting containerised cargo for hundreds of kilometres in minutes. The system removes friction and resistance that slow down regular vehicles.

The system can transport 2 800 twenty-foot equivalent units a day in an enclosed operating environment; this eliminates at-grade crossings to increase reliability, efficiency and worker safety.

The HyperPort capsules can sustainably transport two 20-foot containers or one 40- or 45-foot standard or high cube container at up to 1 220 km/h.

Potential Job Creation

Capital Expenditure

Planned Start/End Date

Latest Developments
The system is preparing to go into certification design review.

A HyperPort VR demonstrator will be exclusively presented at the ITS World Congress – the biggest mobility exhibition in the world – in October 2021.

Key Contracts, Suppliers and Consultants
Mormedi (HyperPort freight capsule design), HHLA, CT Ingenieros and HyperloopTT (precommercialisation technology).
