1 DEEP DECARBONIZATION IN THE PORT OF ROTTERDAM Ruud Melieste, Corporate Strategy, Port of Rotterdam 9 november 2017

2 Port of Rotterdam Over 25 miles! 2

3 Mission: The Port of Rotterdam Authority creates economic and social value by working together with clients and stakeholders on the realisation of sustainable growth in Rotterdam s world-class port. 3

4 Large energy flows mainly fossil Dutch Primary Energy Consumption: PJ X 3 = Energy flows through Port of Rotterdam Throughput over sea + in out PJ bunker 520 PJ Throughput over land in 440 out total PJ Total port balance in out bunker stock + 60 consumption bunker natural gas coal nuclear renewables waste electricity balance import-export crude oil & oil products Oil products Ref Crude oil Natural gas Coal Bio & waste PJ = Peta Joule; statistics 2016, sources: CBS and PoR power & residual heat

5 ARA-Ruhr Cluster as motor of economies 1. Large export centre for oil & chemical products 20% of oil refining in the EU 30% of base chemicals production in the EU crude oil oil products chemicals Amsterdam oil refining chemicals tank storage 2. unrivalled infrastructure: deep sea ports, river delta, pipeline systems 3. Efficient seaport and hinterland logistics Rotterdam Rhine 4. Production integration between refineries and chemical sites 5. Highly qualified labor potential and R&D, based on more than a century of regional development in oil and chemicals Zeeland Antwerp Feluy Moerdijk Kempen Geleen Cologne Ruhr area Ruhr 5

7 Mton Regeerakkoord: implications for Rotterdam CO 2 -emissions port industry cluster - 49% in 2030 compared to 1990 The good news: CO 2 -emissions peaked in the years , since the old coal fired power plants on the Maasvlakte closed per 1 July industry gas fired power plants (incl. CHP) coal fired power plants

8 PATHWAYS TO A DECARBONISED PORT SYNTHETIC CHEMICALS FROM WASTE STREAMS CLOSED CARBON CYCLE SYNTHETIC FUEL& BIOBASED PRODUCTION BIOMASS AND CCS TECHNOLOGICAL PROGRESS LARGE SCALE WATER ELECTROLYSIS (H 2 PRODUCTION) LARGE SCALE AVAILABILITY OF 100% RENEWABLE ELECTRICITY PRODUCTION 100% BIOMASS & WASTE-FIRED (+ CCS) LARGE SCALE AVAILABILITY OF SUSTAINABLE BIOMASS LARGE SCALE CCS (FOR POWER PLANTS AND REFINERIES) RAPID ADOPTION OF BEST AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGIES (ENERGY EFFICIENCY) HEAT GRID EXTENSION CARBON CAPTURE AND STORAGE BUSINESS AS USUAL PARIS AGREEMENT Decarbonization pathways for the industrial cluster of the Port of Rotterdam Wuppertal Institute Simplified for clarity reasons.

10 Energy transition: moving forward with CCS and residual heat CCS: Plan for backbone for entire port area Residual heat for households 10

11 Energy transition: develop biobased, circular, renewable Bioport Rotterdam New plant for Waste-2-chemicals Offshore Center Maasvlakte 2 Neste Construction windturbines Decommissioning platforms Sif 11

12 Energy transition: we will have to convert the power Power-to-X Power-to-heat Power-to-fuels Power-to-products According to Wuppertal Institute, Port of Rotterdam will need 49 TWh renewable power in 2050 to provide society with fuels and products in a non-fossil world. That is equivalent to 12 GW offshore wind capacity 12
