CUXHAVEN/STADE. The LNG jetty in Stade, the largest port construction project of its time in Stade, was not completed and handed over to the operator until December 2023. The NPorts team in Cuxhaven, which is responsible for the Cuxhaven and Stade sites, is now on to its next project. Around eight million euros has been allocated for maintaining and renovating the existing port facilities. Some 71 million euros will be invested in new port structures and 20 million euros in berths 5 to 7. Construction of the new berths will kick off in 2024.
“We’re thrilled about the German government’s financial decision to provide funding for a third of the construction costs.” The state agreed to the project early on with 100 million euros in state funds. “That means the construction phase is fast approaching,” explained NPorts Managing Director Holger Banik.
