With the switch to a circular economy and major investments in the energy transition, Port of Antwerp-Bruges is aiming for climate neutrality by 2050. As a major import and export hub with a very large chemical industry, we have a range of assets at our disposal as a port to limit the impact on the climate. Because Port of Antwerp-Bruges has an extensive ecosystem of industrial and logistical companies and the right know-how as to chemical processes, logistics, operations and infrastructure, it is the ideal hub for alternative energy flows. By making a full commitment to efficiency and circularity and switching to renewable sources and raw materials, we are making the move towards a climate-neutral economy.
