Amsterdam port expands renewable fuel chains as volumes reach 7.9 million tons
In the Netherlands, BBN reported that the Port of Amsterdam is expanding infrastructure and storage for renewable fuels as rising volumes of biofuels, methanol and other low carbon energy products reshape the port’s traditional role as a fossil fuel hub.
Storage capacity for renewable components in the Amsterdam port area increased from about 300,000 cubic meters in 2020 to approximately 700,000 cubic meters.
Non fossil product throughput rose from around 2 million tons to more than 7 million tons over the same period. In 2025, the port handled approximately 7.9 million tons of pure renewable liquids, an increase of more than 10% compared with 2024.
Established energy companies in Amsterdam are adapting their assets to serve these developing markets, according to the report
VTTI, owner of Eurotank Terminal in the Petroleumhaven, has traditionally handled fossil fuel flows and gasoline blending. The company is also developing activities involving renewable feedstocks and sustainable fuels.
DARE, which owns an ethanol terminal in the port area, is examining an expansion of its biofuel storage capacity, the report added.
