The emphasis of the Congress will be on highlighting the innovations in equipment and technology that will allow port users to adhere to policy, whilst illustrating practical solutions through case studies from the global logistics chain.
During the 9th GreenPort Congress, delegates will hear from leading industry experts on:
• Customers, users and stakeholders perception of green ports
• Tools for green ports to respond to stakeholders’ expectations
• Global versus regional regulations and their impact on ports
• Green ports meeting forthcoming challenges
• Financing opportunities for green port projects – EC co-funding opportunities
• Ongoing green port projects
With the increasing popularity of cruise holidays, ports are seeing a large rise in the number and size of passenger ships using their facilities. The local infrastructure is also required to cope with the influx of huge numbers of passengers at a time.
The 2nd GreenPort Cruise Conference will highlight the environmental and sustainability aspects facing cruise terminals across the world, and will include:
• Offshore power supply (cold ironing) or LNG
• Waste management
• Improving cruise ship terminals
• How ports and cities work together to cope with the ever increasing numbers of passengers visiting cities via cruise ships
