Energy transition

Towards a CO2 neutral port

11 May 2021
How can we help you?

The Port of Rotterdam Authority collaborates with companies in the port and the government on a future-proof port with net zero CO2 emissions. That demands a change to an energy system based on fossil energy to a circular economy. To achieve that, work is being carried out on more than 60 projects in the port based on four strategic pillars.

4 pillars

The Port of Rotterdam Authority’s strategy towards a CO2 neutral, circular economy rests on four pillars. Read here what each pillar entails.
