To give an impulse to the energy transition, Moeve and Exolum invest in the port of Huelva

Exolum Y Moeve have announced that they will make an investment of 291 million euros Logistical facilities for the Biofbrandstoffabriek that both companies build in Palos de la Frontera.

The projects, presented today together with the Harbor Authority of Huelva, Record a dock for loading and downloading shipsIn addition to new transport lines that connect the factory with the Exolum storage installation in the port of Huelva. The factory expects to be operational in 2026.

The The idea is to promote sustainability and efficiency, to give more agility to the transport of biofuels And so ‘grain’ of sand can be contributed to the process of low -carbon and energy transition of the port of Huelva.

Moeve and Exolum in the port of Huelva

Moeve, Have exolum and the port authority of Huelva Today presented in the port of Huelva the new Laden and Download InfrastructuresCurrently under construction, which improves operational capacities and the new 2G biobrandstoffabriek will be served that Moeve And their partner built the Palos de la Frontera in the Energy Park La Rábida.

The projects, called ‘South Muelle’ and ‘Polyduct’, represent an investment of 299 million euros and assume considerable progress in the dedication of companies with efficiency and a real step more in the process of Transformation to lead sustainable energies based on green molecules.

In the South Muelle project, Moeve And Exolum has started the construction of a new terminal for energy products in the Outside of Huelva. This Project includes creating a new lower dock, With a length of 511 meters that will modernize the logistics infrastructure of the La Rabida Energy Park, making the loading and unloading of ships optimized.

He South Spring Project will enable combined loading and unloading of raw materials and products, connecting the facilities of Moeve And Exolum through new transport lines. These lines extend from the dock to the La Rábida Energy Park and the Exolum storage installation in Huelva.

South Spring will be one Most important installation for Moeve’s low -carbon strategyAct as one of the raw material input and output of products from the second generation of biofuel production complex that the company is already building in border sticks.

Safe loading and downloading blowjobs replaced

He “Polyduct” project replaces the entire tube system that connects industrial facilities From the Energy and Exolum Park with the Torre Arenillas Dock through new and larger capacity, in addition to improving the dock facilities and considerably improving the safety of the activities.

This new system, about 5 km long, will enable greater operational flexibility and versatility in existing facilities, strengthening the dedication of Moeve With efficiency and innovation. These new facilities will significantly improve the safety of the operations because they replace other existing existing and improve the installation on the DOC, so that loading operations can be used and downloading of simpler and more safe ships can be downloaded.

Objective: energy transition and carbon

José Manuel Martínez, director of technology, projects and services of Moeve, He emphasized the importance of these projects for the company’s strategy: «The new infrastructure in the port of Huelva are crucial steps in our mission to improve the Promote operational efficiency and our carbon arbonization strategy. These investments will not only improve our loading and unloading options, but also strengthen the development and production of biofuels from the second generation ».

The president of the port of Huelva, Alberto Santana, has assured that the Huelva port «has chosen as an energy and industrial cluster, as collects his strategic plan, To lead the energy transition and the port -decomposition of its environment.

To achieve this goal, we support the projects aimed at the production of sustainable energies that are carried out by companies in the port community, If the joint initiative that Moeve and Exolum start todayApproved by a considerable investment, which will contribute to modernizing its infrastructure, improving port operation and generating employment ».

For Exolum, logistics leader in liquid fuels in Spain, it is an important step in the strategy of Adjustment of infrastructure support of the energy transition in Spain. According to Jorge Guillén, director of the Business Unit of Spain and the Aviation of Exolum, “we are very satisfied with collaboration Moeve, Offers the necessary infrastructure to deconse the port of Huelva and to accommodate the new green traffic.

Transformation into sustainability

Sanchez has influenced the removal of the industrial substance of power flows along these lines Moeve and Exolum for the load of biofuel in the port of Huelva, as well as other strategic projects for the province as The new biofuel plant that Moeve builds in Palos.

A year ago the first stone of the 2G Biosbrandstoffabriek in Huelva, to which they will serve an important part of the projects that have been presented today. This new factory represents an investment of more than 1,000 million euros and will increase the production capacity of biofuels from Moeve And bio oils, which reach 1.6 million tons per year. The factory is expected to work in 2026, consolidate Moeve And its partners as leaders in the transition to sustainable energies.
