The site’s extensive size, strategic location and connectivity to Northwest Europe offer unparalleled opportunities. With our site we aim to offer deep-sea, river, road and rail access, as well as pipeline connections to Northwest Europe paving the way for large-scale developments in the chemical industry and hydrogen economy including hydrogen carriers, ammonia storage and cracking.
Vopak Energy Park Antwerp aims to make a positive contribution to the decarbonisation of the industrial cluster in the Antwerp port area and to accelerate the energy transition. The site offers an opportunity to implement a strategy to develop critical infrastructure that supports the energy and feedstock transition, representing an opportunity for the company to contribute to the industry's decarbonisation efforts.
