Bio- LNG Terminal at Brest Port

The energy transition needed to decarbonize the transportation of goods will profoundly alter the business models of today’s multimodal hubs like Brest Port. They will need to manage very diversified energy offers and define the appropriate way to transition and to invest in these new energies at various maturity stages.

The energy revolution to decarbonize the transportation of goods promises to be particularly challenging, given that it will profoundly alter the business models of today’s multimodal hubs.

These hubs will need to manage an extremely diversified energy offer, potentially including new services for imports or the production of new fuels and electricity for use in ports and on ships. The hydrogen molecule, recombined in various forms in so-called synthetic fuels (E-methane, methanol, ammonia, etc.), will undoubtedly meet the needs of heavy goods transportation.

These liquid or gaseous fuels will compete with batteries for more local-based mobility uses. The transition is already underway, with the arrival of Liquefied Natural Gas produced from plant sources.

What impact are we aiming for?

Active for several years, the Community of Interest with the Port of Brest has drawn up a wide range of potential energy offers for the port and the entire region, bringing together shipping companies, energy providers, farmers, mobility players, shipyards and public authorities. As a part of a massive investment plan supported by the Brittany Region, it has validated the appeal of a bio-LNG terminal that could see the light of day in 2027, as a 1st step towards the required transition. The transition is underway.

What are we creating?

A business model based on market survey, Biogas suppliers study and technical-economic scenarios.
