In an interconnected world where collaboration knows no borders and sustainability is paramount, ECOnnect wants to be at the forefront of pioneering future-proof energy solutions.

We recognize that addressing the world's most pressing challenges requires collective action. Through strategic partnerships with organizations, governments, and industry leaders worldwide, we leverage diverse expertise and resources to unlock new opportunities and accelerate progress towards a sustainable future.

 

Germany: A Key Partner in Sustainable Development

With a shared vision for cleaner energy solutions, we collaborate closely with German counterparts to drive forward initiatives that not only benefit our respective nations but also contribute to global efforts to combat energy security.

It has already been one year since we tied knots with FSRU Wilhelmshaven for the delivery of our IQuay solutions in Germany, to enable fast import of high pressure gas. This year, the terminal will be finalized.

“Our recent participation in the renowned Hannover Messe showed us once again that the partnership withGermany is very strong.”

Morten Christophersen, CEO at ECOnnect Energy

 

As a part of the Norwegian delegation, we had the opportunity to showcase our groundbreaking solutions, including the IQuay solution, to a global audience of industry leaders, policymakers and innovators. Besides, we had the chance to foster new connections while gaining fresh perspectives and insights into emerging trends and technologies. Topics such as CCUS, jettyless LNG supply, and ammonia are only the beginning of the ongoing, international collaboration.

As we reflect on our journey and the importance of international partnerships, ECOnnect remains steadfast in our commitment to driving positive change. Whether it's through collaboration with Germany, like initiatives in Wilhelmshaven, or participation in global events like the Hannover Messe, we are dedicated to take a step into evolving our company to build a sustainable and secure energy future.
