Green port
Actions to achieve green port:
a. Provision of onshore power supply (cold ironing)
b. Speed reduction to 12 knots within 20 nautical miles from port
c. Efficient leadership, relevant policies/regulations, innovations,
energy efficient and sustainable development management system

Green port
Identified 17 green port indicators divided into five groups:
a. Air pollution management
b. Aesthetic and noise pollution management
c. Solid waste management
d. Liquid pollution management
e. Marine biology preservation

Green port
Identified 13 factors as guidelines for green port operation. Top five
factors are:
a. Hazardous waste handling
b. Air pollution
c. Water pollution
d. Port greenery, and habitat quality maintenance
e. New measures to reduce port service time through minimising
disruption and maximising efficiency

Green port
Four top indicators for green port:
a. Air pollution avoidance

Energy management in
port
Factors for efficient energy management:
a. Installation of equipment for generating renewable energy from
wind, wave and geothermal energy
b. Wide flat surface such as storage areas and warehouses that can
be used for the installation of solar panels
c. Carbon capture and storage, material recycling and waste disposal
d. Conversion of waste into thermal energy or used to generate
biogas and electricity
e. Development of biofuel
