The plans for the Femern Port & Industrial Park and an international holiday paradise on the south coast of Lolland are now gaining further momentum.
Lolland Municipality has granted DKK 1 million to each project for further development of the plans.
Femern Port & Industrial Park – A unique position in Northern Europe
Femern Port & Industrial Park has been designated by the Danish state as a so-called “red carpet area”, offering particularly favourable conditions for business establishment.
With the million grant, it is now possible to prepare a comprehensive master plan for the area.
This includes the production halls for the Femern project, the associated port and nearby land areas.
The master plan will form the basis for detailed planning, including local development plans, road access and utilities.
Femern Port & Industrial Park paves the way for a new large-scale Danish industrial park covering 780 hectares.
The area will have direct access to a deep-water port and established production facilities at the tunnel element factory.
The site is particularly suitable for green and heavy industry.
This includes offshore activities, concrete and steel elements, recycling and defence-related production.
The combination of access to the E47, access to green energy and close proximity to northern Germany gives the area a unique position in Northern Europe.
This could create the basis for thousands of new jobs.
International holiday paradise
Lolland Municipality sees great potential in developing the south coast of Lolland.
This includes the reclaimed land created from excavation material from the Femern Belt tunnel trench.
With its location on the Baltic Sea and a south-facing orientation, the area has the potential to become an international holiday destination.
Plans include hotels, holiday resorts, summer houses and glamping.
The new beach area, using sand from the Femern construction project, will be twice the size of Amager Strandpark.
According to the plans, it will include a natural beach, an activity beach, a lagoon and a dune landscape.
With the grant of DKK 1 million, work now begins on clarifying Lolland Municipality’s future ownership of the land area.
At the same time, planning of the international holiday destination will start.
