The Port of Rotterdam remains resilient in the face of economic challenges and increases its focus on sustainability and security.

In the first half of 2025, the Port of Rotterdam showed stable financial results against the backdrop of a 4.1% decline in total cargo throughput. At the same time, container throughput in TEU increased by 2.7%, despite a 1% decline in tonnage due to an increase in the share of empty export containers. Port charges increased by 5.4%, and EBITDA reached €295 million (+1.1%). Investments decreased by 17% to €136.1 million, mainly due to project delays and the absence of last year’s purchase of nitrogen emission rights. Nevertheless, the Port of Rotterdam Authority continues to actively support sustainable development, including through the CCS Porthos project and the launch of shore power for cruise ships.
