Discussing the challenges and innovations in last mile port and hinterland railway operations, Dr Iven Kraemar, Head of Department – Port Economy, Infrastructure, Shipping at the Ministry for Science and Ports in Bremen, will focus on Shunt-E.
Shunt- E is an autonomous locomotive that will speed up procedures, save capacity, and better utilise infrastructure. Hinterland connectivity with road, rail and inland waterways is a key factor for today’s ports. Innovations with a clear focus on autonomous and emission-free port and logistics operations are crucial to safeguard a prosperous future for global ports.
