Global Energy Storage (GES) announced its first major investment at Europoort in the Port of Rotterdam.
GES’ plans include the development of a new multi-purpose seagoing jetty, as well as developing infrastructure for:
- Consolidation of biofuel storage
- Storage for renewable fuels
- Gas storage
- Gas to chemicals production
- Green and blue hydrogen
- Hydrogen carriers such as ammonia
GES will also develop more than 20 hectares at the heart of the port, and the site will include a significant waterfront with deep water access, brownfield development opportunities and potential greenfield development sites.
This project aims to become one of the largest low-carbon developments at a world-class industrial hub, with the potential to significantly reduce the carbon footprint of future business in the Port of Rotterdam
GES said, with Eric Arnold, Executive Chairman of GES, adding that the company is looking to develop an international network of storage and logistics infrastructure for low-carbon commodities.
