BAD SODEN<\/strong>. The Bremen-based energy service provider Ambrian Energy and Messer SE & Co. KGaA, a producer of industrial gases, have announced that the planned joint venture \u2018CarbonBridge\u2019 has successfully received antitrust approval from the European Commission. This decision paves the way for the development of the eponymous terminal \u2013 Germany\u2019s first operational CO\u2082 export terminal. The CarbonBridge export terminal in Bremen is set to become operational as early as 2031. Initially, the CarbonBridge joint venture is expected to achieve a maximum handling capacity of around 2.3 million tonnes per year \u2013 with plans to increase this to approximately 4 million tonnes annually in the long term. \u201cWe are delighted to have received antitrust approval for CarbonBridge,\u201d comments Ralph Spring, Senior Manager Commercials CCUS, Messer SE & Co. KGaA. \u201cIn most projects, logistics to the final storage site are the biggest challenge. With CarbonBridge, we aim to offer a flexible solution.\u201d<\/p>\n
