AM Green, a Greenko Group-backed clean energy firm, has partnered with the Port of Rotterdam Authority to establish a green fuel corridor between India and Northern and Western Europe.
AM Green and the Port of Rotterdam will develop terminal infrastructure, shipping bunkering facilities, and supply chains for sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs) and other hydrogen-based products.
The green fuel corridor will link India’s emerging net-zero industrial clusters with Europe’s largest energy port, positioning Rotterdam as a critical entry point for green hydrogen carriers and fuels.
The partnership will facilitate annual exports of up to 1 million tons (mt) of green fuel worth $1 billion, infusing new energy into decarbonizing industry, shipping, and aviation, a statement from the company said.
Rotterdam, Europe’s first energy port, handles about 13% of the continent’s total energy demand and offers a critical entry point for hydrogen carriers.
Anil Chalamalasetty, Founder, AM Green and Greenko Group, dubbed the partnership “a significant milestone in establishing a global carbon-free energy ecosystem.”
“It will enable the seamless movement of green molecules and fuels from India to Europe, reinforcing AM Green’s position as a global clean energy transition platform and accelerating industrial decarbonization,” he said.
“This agreement is an important step to establishing a robust supply chain for low-carbon fuels and chemicals. With India’s vast potential for green hydrogen production and Rotterdam’s advanced infrastructure, the collaboration will lead to a robust and sustainable green energy supply chain between the two regions,” Boudewijn Siemons, CEO of the Port of Rotterdam Authority, said.
AM Green, which is aggressively ramping up its green ammonia production, aims for 5 mt per annum capacity by 2030—equivalent to 1 mtpa of green hydrogen. Initial production will begin at its Kakinada facility.
According to company estimates, this output would represent one-fifth of India’s national green hydrogen target and 10% of Europe’s projected green hydrogen imports.
