This was the result of four years of constructive dialogue between parties . The strategic cooperation agreement outlines the common strategic aim to foster development of the value chain . Although non - exclusive , the agreement recognizes the role of Shell promoting the development of our concept through a commitment for a significant part of the volume of our first plant . The agreement also defines the path towards supply from the projected future plant in the Rotterdam area . This phase 2 plant would start production in 2025 with a plastic intake capacity of 450'000 tonnes p / a , thus producing about 340'000 tonnes p / a of pyrolysis oil .
