Firm commitment to Cuxhaven as a wind power site

CUXHAVEN. At a press conference in June, NPorts announced that a total of 665 million euros had been invested over recent years in the expansion and maintenance of the ports in Cuxhaven and Stade. The biggest project at the branch in Cuxhaven since 2005 has been the liquefied gas terminal in Stade worth 300 million euros, reported NPorts Managing Director Holger Banik (left). Further investments are planned for the current year. Roughly 108 million euros is due to be invested in developing both sites, and 10.4 million euros are intended for the maintenance of existing infrastructure. The work began in February 2025 when the first pile was driven for the expansion of berths 5 to 7. “The fact that we will soon reach the billion mark is proof of our sustainable development strategy. The new berths are a firm commitment to Cuxhaven as a wind power site. They will allow more handling capacity for wind turbines and are a core component towards energy transition,” concluded Banik.
