The World Maritime University (WMU) is an academic partner in the SEANERGY project (Sustainability EducationAl programme for greeNER fuels and enerGY on ports). With the objective of contributing to the achievement of the EU Green Deal objectives, the SEANERGY Project aims to establish a framework to explore the potential of EU ports as key nodes in the marine green energy network.

As part of the SEANERGY research plan, WMU has developed an online survey to create an insight of different port stakeholders, the barriers they are facing in the process of port energy transition, and the possible solutions to overcome these barriers.

This questionnaire is open to a wide range of port stakeholders, from practical port operators to research institutes and academia. WMU is pleased to invite all port stakeholders, to participate in this online survey. To ensure that all viewpoints have been taken into consideration, your participation is essential.

THE QUESTIONNAIRE IS CONFIDENTIAL AND ANONYMOUS FOR THE PURPOSES OF RESEARCH ONLY

Please complete the questionnaire by 30 May 2023. It should take you about 15 minutes to complete the questionnaire.

What are the main challenges for the EU ports to undertake green transition?

The European Union (EU) has been at the forefront of efforts to combat climate change and has taken the leading role in the transition towards a greener and more sustainable future in the first quarter of the twenty-first century. As part of this broad objective, EU ports are facing significant challenges in their endeavour to embrace green initiatives.

Why is the catalogue of energy transition technologies for ports essential for the SEANERGY Project?

Even though currently there are no concrete obligations set in place to scale down maritime transport emissions, reducing them is part of the EU economy-wide reduction commitment under the Paris Agreement, and it also plays a role in the EU’s goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.
