In Venice, in the presence of the Italian, Croatian and Slovenian Ministers of Infrastructure and the European Commissioner for Transport, the Presidents of the 5 ports of NAPA (North Adriatic Ports Association) signed on 3rd December 2021 a Joint declaration on common policies and actions to promote environmental sustainability, digitalisation and connectivity for increasingly smart and green ports.
In line with the principles of the Green Deal, the focus will be on enhancing the connectivity of ports to the TEN-T network and on optimizing logistics and transport procedures through digitalization.
The objectives of the Joint declaration will be pursued through a permanent cross-border cooperation for the purpose of reducing the environmental impacts of port operations in the Northern Adriatic region.
In this regard, the CLEAN BERTH project was mentioned as a best practice of cross-border cooperation in terms of energy and environmental sustainability of ports, which has given greater visibility and relevance to the project itself and its results.
