Evos has successfully installed over 1,500 new solar panels at its Amsterdam West terminal, bringing the total to 1,700 panels. This renewable energy initiative is set to produce approximately 650 MWh of electricity annually, supporting the Port of Amsterdam’s goal of achieving 350,000 m² of solar panels by 2025. Evos is contributing 5,200 m² to this ambitious target.
This development underscores Evos’s commitment to sustainability and the ongoing transition to cleaner energy. In addition to the solar panels, the terminal has also installed 12 new electric vehicle charging points, further promoting green transportation options.
“We are proud of this project and what it represents for both Evos and the Port of Amsterdam,” said Edgar Leenen, MD at Evos Amsterdam. “This is a tangible step forward in our commitment to sustainability, and it is only the beginning. By investing in renewable energy, we are helping pave the way for a cleaner, greener future for the entire port community.”
Evos expressed special appreciation for project manager Dorien Kalmijn and construction manager Cor Kievith for their dedication to bringing this initiative to fruition. The company also acknowledged its valued partner, EQUANS, for their engineering and construction expertise.
The solar panel installation at Amsterdam West is part of a broader renewable energy expansion across Evos terminals in Amsterdam East, Ghent, Hamburg, and Malta. These efforts highlight Evos’s growing role in fostering sustainable energy solutions.
