Tree Energy Solutions (TES), a green energy leader, is making significant progress in advancing its Green Energy Hub in Wilhelmshaven, Germany. TES is developing a liquid CO2 export terminal to support its vision of becoming the world’s leading e-NG producer.
Partnership in Carbon Management
TES has joined the Carbon Management Alliance (CM Alliance), an industrial initiative implementing Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) technologies. The collaboration with the CM Alliance will help drive innovative solutions for carbon management across various industries. This move supports TES’s goal of building infrastructure for efficient carbon management, essential for advancing global decarbonization efforts.

CO2 Export Terminal to Support Decarbonization
The CO2 export terminal will receive CO2 captured from industrial emitters, transporting it by rail or pipeline to Wilhelmshaven. The terminal will temporarily store the CO2 before exporting it to storage facilities or shipping it to renewable energy-rich countries.
Developing CO2 export infrastructure is a strategic move for TES, advancing its goal of becoming a key e-NG producer. The terminal will connect CO2 emitters from Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, and the Czech Republic, enabling emissions transportation efficiently.

Hugo Dijkgraaf, Chief Operating Officer at TES, said, “The CO2 export terminal will be a key asset for Germany’s industrial decarbonization, connecting CO2 emitters and hard to abate industry clusters across Germany and Europe, initially through existing rail networks. “
He added, “This approach allows emissions to be transported without requiring significant new infrastructure. CO2 from Germany, eastern France, Switzerland, Austria, and the Czech Republic can be delivered to Wilhelmshaven. The project could connect to storage facilities in Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, and the UK, with the potential to integrate future sites through the flexible ship-based export facility.”
With future expansion plans, the terminal could also connect to storage facilities in Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, and the UK.
