European flagship Action for
coLd ironING in ports
The electrification of maritime transport is a key challenge to move towards
a more competitive and sustainable TEN-T Maritime Network in the future.
About the Action
The Action, being the first phase of the Global project “European flagship action for cold ironing in ports” (EALING), is a study proposing a common EU harmonised and interoperable framework – from a technical, legal and regulatory point of view - for the transition to electrification for at least 16 of the EU maritime ports involved in the EALING consortium, facilitating the implementation phase of OPS infrastructures and equipment.
It aims at providing a suitable answer to the need of moving towards a more competitive and sustainable TEN-T Maritime Network, answering to the key challenges concerning environment and sustainability.
