Project 9: Industrial Capture of Surplus Wind Energy

The production of wind energy varies. Surplus amounts may occur and will remain unused until extra demand is created. In this project we explore the opportunities within the Rotterdam harbor industrial cluster to create additional flexible demand.

Examples are the production of green chemicals and the charging of automated guided vehicles. We have an eye for technology, economics, sustainability and stake holders.

Our final goal is to describe show cases for improving the environmental footprint of the Port of Rotterdam by using wind energy.
