Technical visit Port of Koper - The energy, environmental and resource efficiency in practice
The growth of trade activities and need for competitiveness on the global market are forcing ports around the world to systematically and continuously evaluate all possibilities for the optimisation and related costs reduction. In the case of the Slovenian Port of Koper, future development of port's infrastructure is not only a vision, but a creative, local process of establishing a solid base for further development of the neighbouring City of Koper, a base which encompasses all fields from planning and decision making to execution of individual projects. Port of Koper is firmly anchored in its local and regional communities, and is a guarantee of social cohesion and stability. In terms of energy use and environmental impacts Port of Koper is among the most advanced ports in the Mediterranean. In 2014 Port of Koper has been awarded with ESPO Award (European Sea Ports Organisation) for the most environmental friendly European port.
The aim of this technical visit in the Port of Koper is to demonstrate the best practices in the field of energy, environmental and resource efficiency.
