Its role Investor / Financier
Energietransitiefonds Rotterdam (Energy Transition Fund Rotterdam) is a public investment fund based in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, established to accelerate the region’s energy transition, particularly in and around the Port of Rotterdam industrial cluster.
The fund supports companies and projects that reduce greenhouse-gas emissions and enable cleaner energy and industrial processes, including solutions in renewable and low-carbon energy, energy efficiency, sustainable heat, electrification, energy storage, and the circular economy. Its mandate is to help promising technologies and infrastructure move from pilot to scale, strengthening regional competitiveness while advancing the decarbonization of energy-intensive sectors such as chemicals, fuels, and building materials.

Moves into Front-End Engineering Design to refine plant design, reduce technical and execution risks, and prepare an engineering package for a Final Investment Decision.
Raises €17m first-close to scale a low-pressure, catalyst-free process that converts plant waste into a modular renewable oil for chemicals, shipping and aviation.
Grant deal formalises funding for Alpha One, enabling engineering, contracting and FID prep. At Evonik Antwerp: 120,000 t/yr iron fuel → 244 GWh/yr low‑carbon heat; ~682 kt CO₂ avoided in 10 yr.
€113.8M funding will develop a commercial iron fuel facility, aiming to decarbonize industrial heat and avoid over 1M tonnes of CO₂ emissions. Operational by 2029.
The plant began production on January 19, 2024, focusing on calibrating processes and optimizing performance. Full-scale production is expected by Q3, aiming for 30,000 metric tons of pyrolysis oil annually.
The agreement involves supplying pyrolysis oil from a Rotterdam plant, operational in 2022, with a second plant planned for 2024. It aims to enhance circular chemical production and plastic waste recycling.
