• DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT IN ONE SENTENCE

RENEWPORT aims to facilitate the clean energy transition of MED ports by exploiting the untapped potential of renewable energy sources, reducing CO2 emissions, improving air quality in urban areas and increasing energy security.

• DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT IN ONE PARAGRAPH

RENEWPORT aims to tackle the challenge of climate change mitigation through the exploitation of renewable energy sources in MED ports. Despite being the most environmentally friendly way of transporting large quantities of goods, maritime transport, like any other human activity based on fossil fuels contributes to climate change. This is even more true in MED ports, located in the proximity of populated areas, degrading local air quality on top of the emitting CO2. RENEWPORT will support the clean energy transition of MED ports, turning them from emitters of pollutants and greenhouse gases to clean energy hubs by exploiting the untapped potential of renewable energy sources. Through RENEWPORT, policy makers will be endowed with new solutions supporting them to fight climate change reaching energy goals and carbon neutrality and citizens will benefit from cleaner air, MED territories becoming greener living areas.
