Antwerp-Bruges-Duisport


German inland port Duisport and the Port of Antwerp-Bruges recently inked a long-term partnership. Both CEOs, Duisport's Markus Bangen and Antwerp-Bruges' Jacques Vandermeiren, sealed the collaboration in the presence of Flemish prime minister Jan Jambon.

 

Both ports plan to further cooperate in the areas of energy transition, rail, and hinterland connections as well as port infrastructure.

 

The European energy system will increasingly focus on sustainable energy sources, with green hydrogen carriers playing a crucial role. The development of solutions for the import, storage, and distribution of green hydrogen in various forms is therefore one of the main strategic pillars of the cooperation between the two ports.

 

Furthermore, Duisport and Port of Antwerp-Bruges want to establish a high-frequency rail shuttle in addition to planned pipeline connections and establish rail as a "rolling pipeline". (sh)
