for much larger plans. Storage capacity with links to productive railway infrastructure would favour trans- ports from inland regions, as CO2 pipelines would pre- sumably only be available in the medium to long term and also only in certain areas.
Carbon storage is no problem for the professionals at Evos. It would be stored at a temperature of -25 de- grees Celsius and a pressure of 15 bar.
The extent to which carbon dioxide will be handled at the Port of Hamburg in the future is also a political question. Pipeline projects have so far been planned with other locations. However, until these plans be- come reality, the Port of Hamburg offers ideal condi- tions for handling carbon dioxide with its extensive railway infrastructure and inland ship links. This is es-
pecially true for polluters with a direct connection to Hamburg. According to a study by DNV, the volume for Hamburg could reach up to 3.5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year in an optimistic scenario. And Evos is ready.
With a storage capacity of 670,000 cubic metres and nine moorings, Evos is broadly positioned in Hamburg.
