Wilhelmshaven CO₂ Terminal Advances as TES and Ramboll Target Scalable Carbon Export Infrastructure

Tree Energy Solutions (TES) and engineering consultancy Ramboll have concluded a joint engineering study for a CO₂ export terminal at TES’s Wilhelmshaven Green Energy Hub, aiming to position the North Sea port as a key node in Europe’s carbon logistics.

The project—designed to support both carbon import and export—comes amid mounting demand for scalable CO₂ transport solutions, particularly in Germany, where industrial emitters face rising pressure to decarbonize in line with the country’s Climate Action Law. According to Germany’s 2045 net-zero strategy, an estimated 34–73 million tonnes of CO₂ may need to be captured and stored annually by 2045, highlighting the need for multimodal infrastructure. Wilhelmshaven’s location—Germany’s only deep-water port—offers an operational edge, linking maritime and rail corridors with existing and planned energy backbones.

The completed pre-FEED study evaluates multiple scenarios for CO₂ intake via rail and export via ship. This includes design considerations for a CO₂ receiving terminal, buffer storage systems, boil-off gas (BOG) handling, and integration with a jetty capable of handling specialized CO₂ carriers. At full scale, the facility is projected to manage up to 10 million tonnes of CO₂ per year, with initial throughput targeted between 3 and 5 million tonnes annually.

In practical terms, the infrastructure will allow emitters inland—especially those not yet connected to pipeline networks—to export liquefied CO₂ by rail for storage offshore. The terminal is envisioned as an interim solution until Germany’s CO₂ pipeline system expands. Long-term, Wilhelmshaven could become a junction for pipeline-based exports as well, depending on regulatory developments under the forthcoming German CCUS strategy.

This multimodal design aligns with broader European goals for integrating hydrogen and CO₂ infrastructure. TES’s Wilhelmshaven hub already includes provisions for LNG and e-NG (electric natural gas) imports, with an initial capacity of 15 bcm. It also connects to Germany’s planned H2ercules hydrogen backbone and the national gas grid, creating a layered energy gateway. The addition of carbon logistics enhances the site’s relevance, potentially enabling cross-sector synergies such as using captured CO₂ for synthetic fuels or other industrial applications.

The partnership with Ramboll, which brings experience from other large-scale energy infrastructure projects, is intended to de-risk the technical design phase and set benchmarks for safety, efficiency, and future scalability.
