Forging a path to a fossil-free future

We are already on the road to building our Wilhelmshaven Green Energy Hub. TES has been selected by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) to develop and implement the fifth Floating Storage Regasification Unit (FSRU) in Germany, together with E.ON and Engie. The FSRU will begin with imports at the end of 2023, thereby contributing to Europe's and Germany's energy security and accelerating energy independence.
Fast-tracked with support from the German government, we are building an onshore terminal that will import, store and distribute green energy, beginning operations by 2027. The Wilhelmshaven terminal layout will have 6 ship berths and 10 onsite tanks providing a total of 2,000,000 m3 onshore storage capacity.
The energy output of this project alone will ensure security of supply and become an essential milestone on Germany and the European Union’s path to net zero.

The Wilhelmshaven Green Energy Hub will soon provide almost 10% of Germany’s total annual primary energy demand.

Why Wihelmshaven?

Europe’s portal to secure, decarbonized energy

Wilhelmshaven is Germany’s only deep-water port. On the western side of the Jade Bight, it sits between the Ems and Weser rivers with ready access to existing onshore wind farms and planned offshore sites in the North Sea. It is the perfect home for green hydrogen-producing electrolysis plants.
Our Wilhelmshaven terminal will be purpose-built for a decarbonized future with direct connections to three major European networks:
  • The existing European high-pressure natural gas network
  • The H2ercules hydrogen network
  • The CO₂ transport network of OGE & TES

Voslapper Groden

We carried out studies and examinations of the flora and fauna of the Voslapper Groden area over the last three years, as well as of various areas that would be well suited to create new habitat and ecosystems. Subsequently we have performed biodiversity modelling and developed planning concepts and design of the new habitats, by various expert companies and a university. The aim of Tree Energy Solutions is not only to compensate for the valuable area taken up, but also to provide added ecological value by creating optimal habitats for all flora and fauna of the area. Currently these planning and design activities are being completed to enable start of developing the new areas by the end of 2023.
