Stad Gent
The City of Ghent wants to continue playing its pioneering role in climate issues and has the ambition to be a climate-neutral city by 2050. Fully committed to climate neutrality also contributes to a liveable city. Developments in the port play a major role in this and there is close cooperation between the city and North Sea Port.
In 2021, the city of Ghent committed itself to working with North Sea Port on long-term cooperation on projects related to carbon capture and valorisation. Public resources have been reserved for this purpose, which are used in full via the public-private platform Smart Delta Resources. A wide range of circular themes such as waste streams, water, bio-based economy, green molecules… are dealt with in close collaboration with the city. In this context, innovation and technology will accelerate the linking of existing and new economic activities to the challenges of the climate transition.
