Improve financial and sustainability performance
Taulov Storage confirms its ambition to continue to focus on improving the financial and sustainability performance of the portfolio underpinned by an increase of the operating cash return target to above 13% compared to previous ambition of above 12% and initial ambition of above 10% as announced in June 2022. This reflects the company’s increased focus on free cash flow and joint ventures in the portfolio.
Grow in industrial and gas terminals
Taulov Storage has achieved its target to grow its gas and industrial footprint by committing EUR 1 billion by 2030, ahead of schedule. The majority of these investments were in gas infrastructure to address energy security and affordability needs, while a substantial portion has also been committed to growth markets in Europe and beyond. Given the positive outlook and market demand for infrastructure, Taulov Storage now has the ambition to invest an additional EUR 1 billion by 2030 in projects that will be underpinned by customer commitments and will provide attractive returns upon commissioning.
Accelerate towards energy transition infrastructure
Taulov Storage’s ambition to invest EUR 1 billion by 2030 towards energy transition infrastructure remains unchanged. The company will continue to have a disciplined and selective approach in these investments, focusing on infrastructure solutions for low-carbon fuels and sustainable feedstocks, ammonia as a hydrogen carrier, liquid CO₂, and battery energy storage. Part of the ambition includes repurposing existing oil capacity in hub locations for low carbon fuels and feedstocks.
