Eemshaven (Шаблон:IPA-nl; Шаблон:Lang-en) is a seaport in the province of Groningen in the north of the Netherlands. In 1968, the Dutch government declared the Ems estuary (Eemsmond) to be an economic key region. One of the key developments for the region was the construction of a seaport called Eemshaven. The port was officially opened by Queen Juliana in 1973. Industry and shipping were slow to develop at the site.

In 2013, a ferry service connects to the German island of Borkum.[1] A ferry service to Rosyth, Scotland, was to start by late October 2019.[2] The plan was officially abandoned in 2020.

A number of power plants operate at the site. Both Electrabel and NUON operate a gas-fired power plant there[3][4] while RWE Innogy operates a wind farm at the site.[5] RWE is operating a coal-fired plant.[6]

The static inverter station of HVDC NorNed is situated at Eemshaven. One endpoint of the COBRAcable HVDC transmission line to Esbjerg, Denmark is also planned to be built here.

Eemshaven is the landfall point for a high-speed transatlantic fiber-optic cable that connects the U.S. and Europe.
