While in the last six editions,the focus was mainly on the many activities in <strong>Rotterdam</strong> relating to the oil and chemical industry,in this new edition you will also find extensive information on the rapidly increasing activities in othersectors, particularly on gas and power and on coal and biomass. Besides already being the no.1refinery hub for many years, <strong>Rotterdam</strong> is now also developing rapidly into the Energy <strong>Port</strong> <strong>of</strong> Europe.When it comes to energy, <strong>Rotterdam</strong> <strong>of</strong>fers all the options: in terms <strong>of</strong> raw materials, logistics andpower generation, there are unparalleled opportunities in the port. The best evidence <strong>of</strong> this are thebillions <strong>of</strong> euro’s which companies are investing in new facilities in the port and industrial area.Examples are the current construction <strong>of</strong> a first LNG terminal, <strong>of</strong> two coal and biomass-fired powerplants, <strong>of</strong> two gas-fired power plants and <strong>of</strong> four bi<strong>of</strong>uel plants and advanced plans for doubling windenergy in the port.As <strong>Port</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong> Authority, we facilitate trade and industry as much as possible. Our policy isgeared towards creating space for sustainable growth, both in the existing port and on Maasvlakte 2,the new port area in the North Sea. <strong>Rotterdam</strong>’s industrial cluster will be able to expand substantiallyhere in the future.To us, sustainable business is a way <strong>of</strong> life these days. The <strong>Port</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong> Authority is, forexample, one <strong>of</strong> the partners in the <strong>Rotterdam</strong> Climate Initiative, a progressive regional programme tohalve CO 2emissions by 2025, in comparison with 1990. The port’s most notable contribution here isthe creation <strong>of</strong> a large-scale infrastructure, such as the steam pipe in the Botlek and the capture andstorage <strong>of</strong> CO 2. The empty gas fields under the North Sea provide plenty <strong>of</strong> opportunities for this.Many examples can be given to emphasise the cluster advantages <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong>. For example, theresidual heat from the E.ON power station is supplied to GATE Terminal to regassify the cold LNG.Here, all sectors are inextricably linked with each other, reinforce each other and as a result, theentire industrial cluster <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong>… to your advantage.For more information about the port <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong>, and how we can help your companyachieve its own goals, please contact us at the following address:<strong>Port</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Rotterdam</strong> AuthorityCommercial DivisionDepartment <strong>of</strong> Industry and Bulk CargoP.O.Box 66223002 AP <strong>Rotterdam</strong>The NetherlandsT +31 10 252 12 30F +31 10 252 10 20I www.port<strong>of</strong>rotterdam.comE info@port<strong>of</strong>rotterdam.com2 PORT OF ROTTERDAM FACTS & FIGURESPORT OF ROTTERDAM FACTS & FIGURES 3
