During the final stop of the tour with The Trade Council of Denmark in Australia & New Zealand and Port Esbjerg’s CEO Dennis Jul Pedersen, our team of experts met with various government bodies and industry stakeholders in Perth, exchanging insights on the sectoral opportunities and Western Australia’s readiness for offshore wind developments. There were also discussions on the potential of offshore wind with key clients, with the keen interest resulting in initial concept studies being developed. We are looking forward to further discussions with relevant stakeholders across #Australia. The tour provided key insights to how the transition of ports could greatly benefit the offshore wind development in the country. To learn how we can collaborate, reach out to our team.

How big is a wind turbine blade really? It might be hard to imagine, but the blades currently being shipped from Port Esbjerg today are over 100 meters long – to put that into context, you could fit six of them inside our local football team Esbjerg fB's stadium, Blue Water Arena⚽ But that’s not the end of the story. In the coming years, wind turbine blades will grow even longer, meaning that Blue Water Arena would need to expand if it wants to keep up! 🌍 Port Esbjerg is on the other hand prepared to meet the future demand for handling and storing larger wind turbine blades and contribute to the buildout of offshore wind. With our infrastructure and expertise, Port Esbjerg is not just Denmark’s largest port – we are also Europe's leading hub for Offshore Wind. Port Esbjerg has been involved in 62 offshore wind projects, shipping more than 4,424 offshore turbines and a total of 27.4 GW. 🚢 To ensure that we can support the next generation of offshore wind, we are currently expanding our port facilities, paving the way for the handling of even larger blades and turbines. As wind energy continues to grow in scale, so does Port Esbjerg.

Driving the green transition for the offshore wind sector requires constant development for meeting our ambitious goals. Yesterday, we welcomed the Minister for Economic Affairs, Stephanie Lose, the Minister for Environment and Gender Equality, Magnus Heunicke, the Mayor of Esbjerg Municipality, Jesper Frost Rasmussen, and Member of Parliament Anders Kronborg to Port Esbjerg ⚓ Together with Port Esbjerg’s CEO, Dennis Jul Pedersen, they discussed the vital collaboration between the port, local, and national authorities. The dialogue highlighted the necessity of constructive engagement between these parties. Port Esbjerg, with its extensive experience in such partnerships, has successfully facilitated these collaborations many times before. As they toured the port on a windy day, other important topics were brought up for discussion: 🛳️ Conditions for the Expansion of Port Esbjerg: The visitors gained a deeper understanding of the current framework and the requirements needed to complete the ongoing expansion of the port. 🤝Collaboration between Port Esbjerg and Authorities: A discussion on how both local and national authorities can support and contribute to the approval processes necessary for port expansions. 👷Inspection of Port Esbjerg’s Current Expansion: A tour of the port to review the current expansion and how Port Esbjerg is preparing to meet future needs in shipping, offshore project development and accelerating the green transition for the whole supply chain in the industry. As the port continues to grow, we need to develop and continue our dialogue on how Port Esbjerg contribute to the green transition. With the role as the world largest hub for offshore wind, we have a bound task to create and facilitate the best infrastructure and opportunities for companies to drive sustainable growth and the green transition. This requires a common understanding of challenges and possibilities.
Port Esbjerg is the world’s largest hub for offshore wind shipments and are constantly striving for greatness, innovation and development at the port. This generates significant international interest, with approximately 150 visits annually, from political decision makers, industry leaders and academia. However, this week was a special pleasure as we welcomed guests from the Presidium of the Danish Parliament and the Chairmanship of the Greenlandic Parliament (Inatsisartut). Our CEO, Dennis Jul Pedersen, and Chairman, Søren Gade, provided a tour and shared insights into the Port's activities and future plans 🌍💨🔋
🌍 Partnership Announcement! 🌍 Port Esbjerg has entered into a strategic collaboration with the Port of Ulsan in Korea, one of the top-10 largest ports for industrial production, car exports, and the production of hydrogen and ammonia (P2X). Ulsan has been designated as Korea’s installation port for offshore wind projects, recognizing the immense potential in partnering with Port Esbjerg. Likewise, Port Esbjerg sees significant opportunities to leverage Ulsan’s expertise in handling hydrogen and ammonia. Both ports share ambitious goals of achieving climate neutrality. Recently, a Danish delegation, including representatives from Port Esbjerg, Mayor Jesper Frost Rasmussen of Esbjerg Municipality, and officials from the Embassy of Denmark in Korea visited Ulsan. Several Danish maritime companies are already well-represented in the region, and this visit highlighted substantial new business opportunities, particularly in offshore wind, where Danish companies have considerable strengths. We look forward to a fruitful collaboration that drives innovation and sustainability in the maritime sector! #Sustainability #OffshoreWind #Hydrogen #Ammonia #MaritimeIndustry #EsbjergHavn #PortOfUlsan #ClimateNeutrality #BusinessOpportunities Karsten Rieder Jesper Knudsen Jesper Bank
⚓Port Esbjerg Secures €115 Million Loan from the European Investment Bank (EIB). Port Esbjerg is gearing up for a busy future, including the shipment of 13.5 GW of offshore wind power by 2030. To support these ambitious plans and its strategic role with NATO, we are expanding and deepening our facilities. Therefore, we are thrilled to announce that the European Investment Bank (EIB) has approved nearly €115 million in financing, marking the first time in decades that a Danish port has received such support. - We are one of the world's largest ports for offshore wind turbines, and our workload is increasing. Thus, it is essential to develop the port to meet the demands of the coming years, says Dennis Jul Pedersen, Port Director of Port Esbjerg. Our ongoing projects include reinforcing quay edges, preparing for next-generation installation vessels, and beginning channel deepening this October. We are also investing in the expansion of RoRo terminals as part of the trans-European transport network (TEN-T). With these enhancements, Port Esbjerg will meet NATO's requirements by establishing necessary reception facilities for allied ships and forces. EIB’s €115 million loan will bolster Europe’s position in the renewable energy market. Located on Denmark's west coast, Esbjerg is Europe's largest port for offshore wind turbine shipping. The port expansion of 57 hectares will become a hub for the growing offshore wind industry. Additionally, our strategic location is vital for NATO operations and the development of the TEN-T network. - This investment in Port Esbjerg is crucial for enhancing Europe's energy security and sustainability while boosting our collective defense capabilities, says EIB Vice-President Ioannis Tsakiris. The channel deepening is expected to start in October, with no objections received. - Our expansion will also contribute to the shift from road transport to more sustainable short-sea shipping and rail transport. This will strengthen Port Esbjerg’s role in the regional logistics network and support broader climate initiatives, says Chairman Søren Gade. Read more about the EIB-loan:
🚢 The Port Esbjerg Expansion Project is on track! 🌊 🌟 The port is growing with a new 350-meter-long quay, complete with a 50-meter-wide quay corridor and a double ramp for RO/RO vessels. This expansion adds a whopping 750,000 square meters to the port and bassin area and is set to be completed by 2025. 🌍 A Green Contribution: Port Esbjerg’s investment of approximately 80 million euros supports the EU’s ambitious offshore wind goals. It’s not just about infrastructure—it’s about sustainability and the future of energy. 📈 Job Creation & Cargo Growth: The expansion will create new jobs and meet the rising demand for logistics and transportation of wind turbine components. General cargo, trailers, and container freight will also benefit from this development. 🤝 Strong Partnerships: Port Esbjerg collaborates with private companies and public institutions to ensure sustainable and efficient growth. Together, we’re shaping the future of freight and energy infrastructure. #PortEsbjerg #Infrastructure #GreenTransition"
