Miljardenplan voor verduurzaming chemiereus Dow in Terneuzen definitief gestrand
The bagel they save for the regulars. Don't skim, savour.
Summary
De Nederlandse overheid had een historisch bedrag van maximaal 3,6 miljard euro klaarliggen om chemiereus Dow in Terneuzen te ondersteunen bij CO2-afvang en de bouw van een 'groene kraker' die waterstof gebruikt als energiebron. Het project, dat jarenlang in onderhandeling was en bedoeld was als showcase voor het verduurzamen van de Nederlandse basisindustrie, is uiteindelijk in de zomer van 2025 definitief gestrand.
