Evaluation and governance of green development practice of port: A sea port case of China

A Digital or Sustainable Small and Medium-Sized Port? Sustainable Port Blueprint in the Baltic Sea Region Based on Port Benchmarking

“…In this vein, recent discourse on port development is focusing on greening port measures (Castellano et al, 2020;Hua et al, 2020;Munim et al, 2020;Sadek & Elgohary, 2020). Following this stream, the idea of twinning digital and environmental activities has been elaborated by recent research outputs Zhou et al, 2021) with the overall objective to change the perspective on ports towards sustainable and smart development, utilising digital technology applications.…”

Logística portuária sustentável – uma análise de experiências internacionais

“…As variáveis consideradas essenciais para a geração do índice sintético são definidas a partir das informações e dados contidos nos relatórios de sustentabilidade de um sistema portuário. Hua et al (2020) sugerem um sistema de indicador de porto verde feito sob medida para o porto de Zhuhai e, em seguida, usa o método de análise de desempenho de importância difusa para determinar o desempenho do porto de Zhuhai, em indicadores de porto verde, antes de propor uma governança estratégica. O estudo mostra que o porto de Zhuhai deve monitorar o consumo de energia e das emissões de poluentes, investir em inovação e tecnologias visando promover operações portuárias verde (green).…”

Driving Mechanism of Port-City Spatial Relation Evolution from an Ecological Perspective: Case Study of Xiamen Port of China

“…Since the state urged the construction of ecotypic ports, changing the spatial distance between ports and cities has become an important measure for many coastal cities to develop ecotypic ports for sustainable development. For example, the Huangpu River Port of Shanghai Port has been largely relocated to Waigaoqiao Port Area and Yangshan Deep-water Port Area; the up-scaling transportation in the north main port area of Tianjin Port has seriously disrupted the green and livable urban construction of Binhai New Area, which leads to the current planning of adjustment and relocation of the port area; Xiamen Dongdu Port Area has transformed some multi-purpose terminals to cruise berths and is planning to move the freight function to out of the island; Ningbo Beilun Port also intends to gradually transfer bulks transshipment operations to Chuanshan Port Area and Majishan Port Area, which are farther away from the city [1,3,6]. Some scholars have tried to evaluate the impact of port-city separation in recent years, but most of them ended up with qualitative descriptions, lacking quantitative research on the changes of factors such as resource consumption, environmental protection, and integrated transport costs that arise from port-city separation.…”
