Final Study Report on Enabling Sustainable Management and Development of Inland Ports was officially published
The final report of the “Study on Enabling Sustainable Management and Development of Inland Ports” has officially been published on the Publications Office of the EU. The study, carried out under the Green Inland Ports initiative, supports the transition of European inland ports towards becoming sustainable, zero-emission and digitally enabled logistics hubs. Commissioned within the framework of the European Green Deal objectives, the report highlights the strategic role of inland ports in reducing transport emissions, strengthening multimodal connectivity and supporting sustainable regional development across Europe. The study also provides recommendations and practical tools for improving environmental performance, energy efficiency, digitalisation and operational sustainability in inland ports. The final report brings together the outcomes of several workstreams covering environmental impacts, digitalisation, sustainable mobility, and Environmental Sustainable Management Systems (ESMS), alongside lessons learned from pilot ports and stakeholder consultations conducted throughout the project. The report is now available online on the Publications Office of the EU website here. Annex 3 with all supporting materials is available here.
