How can Europe turn carbon capture from a climate ambition into real-world infrastructure?
Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is often discussed as a future solution. In Port Esbjerg, it is already becoming reality.
In this presentation, CEO Dennis Jul Pedersen explains why ports are emerging as critical hubs in the green transition, and how Port Esbjerg is building one of the key links between European industry and large-scale CO₂ storage in the North Sea.
You will gain insight into:
- Why CCS is becoming a strategic necessity for European competitiveness
- How EU regulations, carbon pricing and industrial policy are accelerating investment
- Why Denmark's North Sea storage potential could become a European asset
- How CO₂ can be transported by truck, train and ship to dedicated storage sites
- What it takes to create a functioning CO₂ logistics chain from emitter to reservoir
Port Esbjerg is already operating the first phase of its CO₂ terminal and preparing for the next step: connecting European industry to large-scale offshore storage.
If you want to understand where maritime infrastructure, climate technology and industrial transformation meet, this session offers a rare look behind the scenes at one of Denmark's most ambitious CCS projects.
Because capturing carbon is only half the challenge. Moving it, storing it, and making it commercially viable is where the real work begins.
