GRTgaz, Europe's second-largest gas carrier, is joining the New Energies Coalition, a consortium which now has nineteen members.
Initiated by the CMA CGM Group in 2019, the New Energies Coalition brings together the world's leading international logistics chains operators. Together, they are committed to developing energy and technology solutions for reducing the sector’s impact on climate change.
GRTgaz's entry into the New Energies Coalition is a step forward in the development of renewable and low-carbon gas solutions for mobility and logistics.
GRTgaz will provide its expertise and its R&D capabilities in managing gas systems and developing renewable and low-carbon gases (such as biomethane, hydrogen and e-methane);
GRTgaz will also share its decarbonisation experience acquired through CO2 transport network projects – CO2 captured at industrial sites and transported up to the locations at which it will be used and geologically stored.
The company has a foothold in the main areas across France where high levels of CO2 are emitted, with infrastructure projects in Fos-Sur Mer (where the Jupiter 1000 pilot and HYnframed project are located), Dunkirk and Nantes-Saint-Nazaire (with the GOCO2 project to capture and transport CO2 of industrial origin from the Loire region and Greater Western France).
