Building a Sustainable Energy Bridge: AM Green Partners with Port of Rotterdam for Green Fuel Trade
Key Ideas
- AM Green and Port of Rotterdam sign MoU to establish a green energy supply chain connecting India to Northwestern Europe through Rotterdam.
- Partnership focuses on sustainable fuels like bunkering fuels and SAFs, with plans to export up to one million tons of green fuels annually.
- Collaboration aims to develop strategic port infrastructure for handling and distributing hydrogen-based fuels, supporting industrial decarbonization globally.
- AM Green targets producing 5 million tons of green ammonia by 2030, aligning with Europe's decarbonization objectives and India's Green Hydrogen Mission.
AM Green and the Port of Rotterdam Authority have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on building a green energy supply chain linking India to Northwestern Europe through the Port of Rotterdam. Rotterdam, as Europe’s first dedicated energy port and a key entry point for hydrogen carriers, will play a crucial role in this partnership. The agreement includes the supply of sustainable fuels like bunkering fuels and Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs) and assessing infrastructure needs for terminals in Rotterdam and throughout the supply route to Northwestern Europe.
A significant aspect of this collaboration is the joint support for developing port infrastructure to handle and distribute hydrogen-based fuels and related products safely. The goal is to connect India's emerging Net Zero Industrial Clusters with Europe, enabling the export of up to one million tons of green fuels annually, potentially leading to a trade value of USD 1 billion. The CEOs of both entities expressed enthusiasm for this partnership, highlighting its contribution to the energy transition.
AM Green aims to establish a production capacity of five million tons of green ammonia by 2030, equivalent to about one million tons of green hydrogen, to meet the growing demand for clean energy solutions. The Port of Rotterdam, a significant logistics and hydrogen hub in Europe, will play a pivotal role in this green energy supply chain. This partnership aligns with India's National Green Hydrogen Mission and Europe's decarbonization goals, emphasizing a shared commitment to a sustainable energy future.
