Port of Rotterdam and Horisont Energi sign MoU to set up a corridor of blue ammonia from Norway to Rotterdam

The Port of Rotterdam has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Horisont Energi regarding the setting up of a corridor for transport of blue ammonia from Norway to Rotterdam.

Horisont Energi and the port will explore a collaboration to ship blue ammonia, produced in Northern Norway, from natural gas with carbon capture and storage, to the Port of Rotterdam where it will be received for further distribution to meet expected demand in North-western Europe.

Nico van Dooren, director, new business, at the Port of Rotterdam said: “There’s an important role for blue hydrogen if we want to realise the international climate ambitions.
