The new unit will use Cryocap™ technology to capture CO₂ from a hydrogen plant, transport it via Porthos, and store it in North Sea gas fields, reducing emissions by 2.5 million tons annually.

Porthos will invest €1.3 billion in a CO2 transport and storage system in Rotterdam, operational by 2026. It will store 2.5 Mton CO2 annually for 15 years, aiding Dutch climate goals.

An 11ha site on the Maasvlakte is being developed for a green hydrogen plant, leveraging wind energy from the IJmuiden Ver Wind Farm. The plant aims to be operational by 2028.

The Maasvlakte Energy Hub will use Plug's electrolyzer technology to produce green hydrogen by 2026, expanding to 500 MW by 2030, aiding the Netherlands' decarbonization and energy security goals.

The corridor will decarbonize industry and maritime transport, support EU energy independence, and is expected to be operational by 2027, with plans for further expansion from Huelva.

The hydrogen pipeline in Rotterdam will connect the Maasvlakte to Pernis by 2024-2025, supporting sustainable industry and linking to national and international networks.

The terminal will import green ammonia as a hydrogen carrier, operational by 2026, supporting green hydrogen demand in energy, transport, and petrochemicals, leveraging Rotterdam's strategic location.

The agreement aims to develop green hydrogen production at Maasvlakte, leveraging North Sea wind power and connecting to Rotterdam's hydrogen infrastructure, advancing carbon neutrality and sustainable energy.

The Port of Rotterdam has expanded with Maasvlakte 2, new LNG and coal facilities, increased wind energy, and enhanced synergies, making it a key hub for the energy and petrochemical sectors.

A feasibility study for a 100MW green hydrogen plant at Maasvlakte aims for completion by summer 2025, with plans to expand to 500MW. The project leverages renewable energy and existing infrastructure.
