Regeneration in the realm of ports means breathing new life into their infrastructure, ecosystems, and surrounding communities with a focus on sustainability and resilience. This includes actions like reviving deteriorated coastal zones, introducing eco-friendly infrastructure projects, and supporting local economies through sustainable methods. By regenerating ports, we're essentially creating lively, eco-conscious centers that set an example for sustainable growth, making a positive impact on people's lives today and for the generations to come.

What is a Green Port? 🌿⚓ Explore the concept of a "green port" and its increasing importance in reducing the environmental footprint of the maritime sector. This article details the initiatives and technologies transforming ports into pillars of sustainable development. #GreenPorts #SustainableDevelopment #MaritimeEcology #PortInnovation #CarbonReduction #GreenTechnology #GreenEconomy #MaritimeSector #Environment #Sustainability 🔗 What is a Green Port? https://lnkd.in/e2FZnXFs

If you want something to move, it helps to give it a little nudge. But when it is the aviation sector’s green transition that you want to get rolling, a little more than that is needed 🛫 What exactly? One of Scandinavia's largest factories that produces synthetic and sustainable aviation fuel using power from wind turbines and solar panels. Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) is behind the project, which is called Fjord PtX, because of its location close to the Limfjord in Northern Jutland, Denmark. Here, the PtX plant will utilize renewable energy and CO₂ from a nearby waste incineration to produce green aviation fuel. We are responsible for planning the project and handling all regulatory processes, including the implementation of environmental and nature surveys and the application for the necessary permits. It is expected that all permits are in place, and construction can begin in 2026. Annually, the future plant is expected to be able to produce up to 110 million litres of aviation fuel, which will be more than enough to cover the annual domestic flights in Denmark, which currently consume 30 million litres of fuel. But the plant will not only deliver the first drops of green aviation fuel to Danish aviation. The factory will also produce a range of sustainable by-products for other sectors.

The evolution of shipping fuel, from its sustainable origins through various phases of coal and oil to the current quest for environmentally conscious alternatives, exemplifies the industry’s transformative journey. In our first blog post, Luke O'Connell, Engineer and ShipFuel-IE Project Manager, delves into the history of shipping fuel, its transition towards sustainability and the opportunities and challenges faced by the industry. Read Luke's article here - https://lnkd.in/eB5RAmUm As environmental concerns intensify, the shipping sector faces a pivotal moment to redefine its relationship with fuel. The innovative ShipFuel-IE research project is set to position Ireland at the helm of maritime sustainability by developing a clear path to support the transformation of the shipping sector’s reliance on traditional fuels to low-carbon alternatives. ShipFuel-IE is led by MaREI, the Science Foundation Ireland Research Centre for Energy, Climate and Marine at University College Cork in collaboration with renewable energy consultants Gavin & Doherty Geosolutions (GDG), a Venterra Group company. The ShipFuel-IE project is funded by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) and the Department of Transport. #Sustainability #RenewableEnergy #ShippingIndustry #Innovation #Maritime #EnvironmentalImpact #EnergyTransition

🌍 Making infrastructure sustainable - one gantry at a time! 🚧 Together with ASFINAG, we have installed the first operational "Green Gantry" made from renewable timber on a highway in Carinthia, Austria. 🌱 Reduced CO2 footprint: by using renewable timber, the Green Gantry binds 15 tons of CO2 compared to the up to 30 tons produced by steel gantries. 🌿 Environmental Benefits: With a lifespan of at least 20 years, the gantry can be dismantled and reused, minimizing environmental impact. ⚙️ Technical Features: Features weather-resistant layers and is powered by its own photovoltaic system with battery storage to ensure continuous operation. Check out the full story and pictures here >>> https://okt.to/5jxTMV ASFINAG, HASSLACHER NORICA TIMBER Forster #sustainability #infrastructure #TollingInnovation
