Four European port and infrastructure players have partnered up to study the potential of carbon capture and storage (CCS) shipping corridors between Northern Europe and the UK, as well as share experience and understanding for the “new but crucial energy transition area” .

Two memorandums of understanding (MoU) have been signed, one between Associated British Ports (ABP) and LBC Tank Terminals and North Sea Port, and one between ABP and the Port of Esbjerg, to pursue collaborative efforts to develop shipping routes for captured CO2, enabling hard-to-abate sectors to cut emissions.
