Liquid CO2 terminal at the Maasvlakte in Rotterdam

To meet the goals set by the Dutch Climate Agreement and the European Union’s Green Deal, it is essential to take great step s to reduce CO₂ emissions at scale to contribute to the energy transition. The CO2next project, a partnership between Gasunie, Vopak, Shell and TotalEnergies, aims to make a significant contribution to the energy transition by enabling reduction of CO₂ emissions for the hard-to-abate industries. This is intended to be achieved through the realization of a large-scale CO2 infrastructure, of which the liquid CO2 terminal is a crucial component. This will enable the industrial sector to transport CO2 and store it in empty gas fields under the North Sea through CCS projects such as Aramis.
