The must attend event for green strategy at ports

This year’s event, chaired by Dr Chris Wooldridge, offers a broad variety of presentations from across the port sector, addressing the pressing challenges of compliance, protection and sustainability within an ever-changing, evolving global and political landscape.

Over two days, the programme will feature informative presentations, panel discussions, and active audience participation, culminating in a tour of Le Havre Port.

Centre stage

HAROPA PORT is at the forefront of tackling key issues in reducing emissions and infrastructure development and will be offering key insights into its current projects across the two days of the event.

Its director general, Stephane Raison, will join the panel for the keynote presentation and Cedric Verciglio, strategic planning director will present in the “Resourcing the Transition to Sustainability” session.

Long time GreenPort Congress and Cruise supporters, Isabelle Ryckbost, secretary general, ESPO; Antonis Michail, technical director IAPH & WPSP, IAPH and Lamia Kerdjoudj, secretary general, FEPORT, will offer their own unique perspectives on “Building a Sustainable Future: Priorities & Challenges for Meeting Net-Zero” – the keynote panel on the first day of the conference.

Case studies are a valuable element of the conference and feature across both the Congress and Cruise streams of the two-day conference.

Examples include an update from the Port of Dover on its Green Corridor progress, and, in the Cruise stream, a presentation and discussion on port sustainability investments and projects in the Mediterranean ports by Port System Authority of the Sardinian Sea.

No conference on reducing emissions would be complete without discussion and debate on alternative fuel solutions and electrification is a key part of the GreenPort Congress and Cruise programme for 2024.

Hervé Geraud, onshore power supply expert for HAROPA Port and Roland Teixeira de Mattos, president, EOPSA, will provide insights in this important area.
