The sustainable connection means that Guarantees of Origin (GOs) provide proof that the power supply is actually generated by Giessenwind's wind turbines. This guarantees the supply of Dutch green power for the total power consumption of VTTI's Dutch locations. ETT and ETA will thus be reducing Co2 emissions and contributing to the carbon neutrality climate goals. Scholt Energy is providing the contractual link between ETT, ETA and Giessenwind and the administration of the GOs.
ETT solar energy project
Last year, a large solar energy (PV) project was completed, as a result of which ETT is now generating part of its electricity consumption itself using solar panels. Scholt Energy provided the project management for the realisation of the project. Scholt Energy supervised this project from subsidy application through to realisation. Working with the solar panel installer, AC installer, lightning protection and the technical consultancy firm, 1,148 panels were installed with a total capacity of 419 kWp, in addition to the 350 kWp already present at the terminals.
Long-standing working relationship
The start of the working relationship between ETT, ETA and Scholt Energy goes back more than ten years. During this long-term partnership, Scholt Energy has actively and personally advised the companies on energy purchasing and sustainability.
Our independent nature, personal contact and ready knowledge of the market has resulted in a long-standing working relationship. ETT and ETA appreciate Scholt Energy's innovative and proactive ideas regarding the pursuit of greater sustainability. For Scholt Energy, ETT and ETA are model customers. They are organisations that think along the same lines and heed the advice of our specialists. As organisations, they have a very sustainable business operation in mind, something that the ETT and ETA management teams emphasise.
Euro Tank Terminal / Eurotank Amsterdam
Eurotank Amsterdam (ETA - Amsterdam Westpoort) and Eurotank Terminal Rotterdam (ETT - Rotterdam Europoort) are part of VTTI's global network of energy storage terminals. At 17 locations, VTTI has more than 10 million m3 of storage capacity, spread across five continents. ETT has a capacity of more than 1,290,000 m³ spread over 32 tanks with another 100,000 m³ under construction. ETA has a storage capacity of 1,200,000m3 spread over 173 tanks. The key strength of the terminals lies in the combination of operational flexibility, the ability to handle a range of energy products and chemicals, and a leading customer base. As a player in the energy market, ETA and ETT are actively contributing to the energy transition by preparing the terminal for the new energy forms of the future.
