Energy storage battery.How can Rotterdam become a future-proof port?The Port of Rotterdam Authority collaborates with companies in the port and the government on a future-proof port with net zero CO2 emissions. That demands a change to an energy system based on fossil energy to a circular economy. To achieve that, work is being carried out on more than 80 projects in the port based on four strategic pillars.
Where is CO2 stored in Rotterdam?The pipeline is now being constructed. Porthos is developing a project to transport CO 2 from industrial companies in the port of Rotterdam and store it in empty gas fields under the North Sea. Thanks to Porthos, some 2.5 million tonnes of CO 2 will be captured annually and stored permanently.
Why is Rotterdam a hydrogen port?Besides accommodating production, the port also aims to play a crucial part in the import of hydrogen through the construction of multiple hydrogen terminals. Portuguese and Dutch government ministers have signed a memorandum of understanding to connect Portugal’s hydrogen project in the port city of Sines to the port of Rotterdam.
