LBC Vlissingen’s Green Energy Hub plans for ammonia, hydrogen and CO₂
- LBC Vlissingen plans a Green Energy Hub in Sloehaven (North Sea Port) for import, storage and conversion of green ammonia.
- The project aims to establish one of the first large-scale green ammonia import terminals in Vlissingen integrated with hydrogen production and CO₂ storage.
- Imported ammonia would be converted to green hydrogen and distributed via existing infrastructure such as the Gasunie backbone to customers in the region and northwest Europe.
- Smart Delta Resources highlights the initiative and emphasises the need for collaboration among industry players, infrastructure partners and public stakeholders to realise the project.
Project overview
LBC Vlissingen is developing plans for a Green Energy Hub in the Sloehaven (North Sea Port) that would import and store green ammonia, provide CO₂ storage and produce green hydrogen. Smart Delta Resources published an interview and article outlining these initiatives.
Integrated operations
The company aims to integrate import, storage and conversion at a single location, positioning the terminal as one of the first large-scale green ammonia import facilities in Vlissingen. Conversion capability would allow ammonia to be processed on-site into green hydrogen.
Distribution and infrastructure
Converted green hydrogen could be distributed via existing infrastructure such as the Gasunie backbone, supporting customers in the surrounding region and across northwest Europe and leveraging regional industrial connections.
Collaboration and regional role
Smart Delta Resources stresses the importance of cooperation between industry players, infrastructure partners and public stakeholders to realise projects of this scale and to strengthen the Scheldt Delta region’s role as an energy hub.
