Why Green Ports matter?
Green Ports initiatives contribute to improve air quality in cities and ports, reduce air
pollutants and noise, and reduce CO2
• Non-methane volatile
organic compound
• PM2.5
• Sulphur dioxide
• Nitrogen oxydes
• PM10
• Ammonia
Effects of air pollution include breathing and respiratory systems, damage to lung tissue, cancer,
premature death, incidence of acute respiratory illness in children, cardiovascular disease and
chronic lung disease.

What is Green Ports?
Green Ports is a set of measures to improve Port’s and maritime transport impact on
environment.
• Replacement of traditional engines with GNL powered engines.
• Use of scrubbers in vessels.
• Onshore Power Supply.
12. Today, several agreements for a cleaner maritime transport have been adopted.
According to an EU directive, starting in 2015, vessels sailing in the SECA zone in
North Europe must release less than 0.1% of Sulphur

• Current ECA zones • Potential ECA zones
ECA zones worldwide
• ECA: The US limits emissions of SO2, NOx y CO2
• SECA: Europe limits only SO2 emissions
Percentage of shipping emissions over global emissions :
15% of nitrogen oxide, N0x
6% of sulphur oxides, S02
2% carbon dioxide, CO2

• The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is
the specialized agency of the United Nations
responsible for the safety of navigation and
prevention of marine pollution by vessels.
• The MARPOL Convention (Annex VI) lays down
rules on air pollution caused by ships.
• MARPOL applies ECA zones stricter rules on
emission limits.
• EU seeks to coordinate the position of IMO member
countries to adopt measures to reduce ship
emissions.
• According to European Directive from 2015, sulphur
emission limit to 0.1% in navigation and port.

Installing scrubbers in a ship requires a smaller investment compared to
retrofitting of a ship to accommodate the LNG
Currently the LNG has the added difficulty of the lack of grid (LNG bunkering)

• LNG investment far beyond Scrubber
Scrubber: 5 Million EUR *
LNG: 5-30 EUR *
• Longest stay at shipyard for LNG front Scrubber
1-2 months of LNG retrofitting scrubbers VS10 days
• Current widespread lack of infrastructure supply with
liquefied natural gas pumping Ports
• LNG reduces energy costs of operation and maintenance.
• Natural gas combustion is cleaner: Motor life is increased
10 to 15%.
• Availability of space is required to install on board LNG
storage tanks to -165 ° C and 0-10 bar.
• Loss of cargo space,
• LNG emits less CO2 (30%), NOx (90%) and particles
Note(*): figures are estimates, they may vary upon tpower, type, features, space available for machines, and others.

The Onshore Power Supply (OPS) replace the auxiliary engines on board for
generating the energy required for activities during vessel stays in ports
OPS connects berthed vessels to a power supply through a cable (i.e. connected to
the local electricity grid)

Governments, Port Authorities, Terminal Operators and Shipping Lines in the
Mediterranean are the main maritime stakeholders concerned with Green Ports
Reasons to implement Green Ports initiatives Actions that will ease Green Ports projects
• Social and environment impact.
• Savings.
• CO2 carbon footprint improvement.
• Compliance.
• Take advantage of support from Public
entities.
• Use of PPP for financing.
• Seek support of Public financing
mechanisms (Horizon 2020, CEF, etc.)
• Implement incentives and/or taxation
schema to support Green Ports.
• Focus first on higher-impact projects
(e.g. Ro-Ro terminals, cruises, etc.).
• Do a proper analysis that will define
cost and benefit sharing among
stakeholders in a fair manner.
