Vlissingen ammonia import hub progresses

By on March 14, 2023
Proton Ventures has been awarded a FEED contract to “re-convert” existing tanks to handle ammonia imports at Vesta Terminal’s site in Vlissingen. The future “Greenpoint Valley” hub will have a throughput capacity of at least one million tonnes per year of ammonia, jetty access for VLGCs, railcar loading, and potentially an onsite ammonia cracker. Also in the Netherlands, Battolyser Systems is leading a proposal for a native electrolyser manufacturing ecosystem in Rotterdam.

Cepsa and Port of Rotterdam to create a green maritime corridor from the Mediterranean

By on October 19, 2022
Cepsa and the Port of Rotterdam will establish a green maritime corridor between southern and northern Europe.
