The decarbonisation of the shipping industry demands ports to
find more sustainable ways to operate as much as the
decarbonisation of vessels. In this article we look at how hardware
innovation could help decarbonise ports.
Ports provide many functions. Therefore, they require complex
infrastructures. Functions directly connected to shipping include
providing quays, refuelling facilities, loading and unloading, dry
bulk storage, cleaning, administrative functions, and crew and
staff facilities. Ports can also host factories, power stations,
refineries, and facilities supporting offshore industries. All
these functions can, and need to, become more sustainable.
