CO2nnectNow, Wilhelmshaven ENERGY HUB
As a result of its acquisition of the Wintershall Dea asset portfolio in 2024, Harbour Energy became involved in the CO2nnectNow project. CO2nnectNow aims to develop Wilhelmshaven into an export hub for CO2 from Germany. The CO2 produced from energy intensive industries from all over Germany can be transported to Wilhelmshaven and from there transported by ship or pipeline to storage sites in the UK, Norwegian and Danish North Sea. There, the CO2 emissions are planned to be safely stored in deep geological layers under the seabed using CCS.
The Wilhelmshaven ENERGY HUB is a group of project developers and stakeholders developing the city of Wilhelmshaven on Lower Saxony's coast into a new centre for supplying Germany with low carbon energy and supporting the energy transition.
