Swedish Government funding brings the Malmö CO₂ Hub closer to realisation

The development of a CO₂ hub in Malmö has taken an important step forward. The Swedish Energy Agency has granted 31 million SEK to Nordion Energi through the national Industriklivet programme to complete the analytical work required ahead of a final investment decision in 2027.

The funding supports the joint ambition to establish an open-source hub for CO₂ capture, transport and storage for all interested emitters in the region — a project in which Copenhagen Malmö Port (CMP) is a key partner – and where the port in Malmö has been identified as the optimal hub location.

This is a significant milestone in the shared effort to develop a full-scale CO₂ hub in Malmö, benefitting society, businesses and local communities. CMP looks forward to continuing the constructive cooperation with Nordion Energi, Sysav, E.ON and Uniper and will work actively to ensure that trimodal infrastructure for CO₂ transport via rail, road and sea, and suitable quay facilities are prepared for future large-scale CO₂ handling.

With this new government funding, Malmö moves another step closer to becoming a leading Nordic hub for future CO₂ logistics and CMP is looking much forward to the continued cooperation in the coming years.
