Completed

Port of Trelleborg has submitted one of the three Swedish projects that has been selected for receiving EU financial assistance in the field of CEF Transport following the ‘Blending’ call for proposals.

The project, which has the work name LARS – Long Term Achievements Ready for a Sustainable Core Port in Trelleborg, will receive grants for the planned activities to be carried out until 2021 for the continued expansion and relocation of the port southeast.

The activities are:

1) Land filling works in the new Eastern port area

2) Construction of new berth no.13 and quay no. 14 including surrounding area and dredging

3) Filling works at berth no. 7

4) Bottleneck removal by road crossing solution over rail tracks

The project extends between August 1, 2017 and June 30, 2022.

Real Time Ferries is an EU project aimed at developing a common and unified system for sharing information on departure and arrival times for ships. Those who register in Real Time Ferries share information to the system but have also the opportunity to retrieve real-time information that they then use to improve the service to their customers.

Port of Trelleborg participates in the project, together with Stena Line and Hogia, with the purpose of using the information to enable pre notification for pick-up or drop-off of trailers. Information about a ship’s arrival from the shipping company is linked to a unit booking in Port of Trelleborg and is made available to the haulage company. The haulage company completes the information via a web interface with the driver’s name and the tugmaster’s registration number and sends it back to Port of Trelleborg. At the same time, a work order is created to pick-up the device sent to the driver’s mobile phone through an app. When the device is unloaded in the port, the driver can enter the port via a QR code.

The project runs from May 25, 2017 – December 31, 2020 (3 years).

22 partners (e.g. THAB, Sjöfartsverket, Stena Line, Rostock Port, Skånetrafiken).

Lead partner is University of Rostock.

Clusters 2.0 project has received funding from the
European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation
programme under grant agreement No 723265

The purpose of this project is to examine from an interdisciplinary approach how environmental differentiated dues and incentives in ports can reduce the environmental impact caused by all transport modes that call at the port. Both land and sea transport to and from the ports are addressed. The project’s main focus is at local level to improve the air quality in the seaport, but also climate impact is included. The long term goal of this work is to promote a shift to more environmentally efficient transport, vehicles, ships, technologies and alternative fuels. This is an important task in order to achieve the climate and environmental goals for transport.

The work will ultimately result in estimates of expected impacts on emissions to air, congestion and energy use in the introduction of environmentally differentiated fees and incentives.

Port of Trelleborg is a project partner in the role of “a big port in a small city” where we share the project our views and reflections.

The project extends between December 2006 and November 2018 (2 years)

Project partners: University of Gothenborg, IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, Port of Trelleborg, Ports of Stockholm and Port of Gothenborg, among others.

Marco Polo

Project partners: Port of Trelleborgs, Swedish Transport Agency, Port of Szczecin Świnoujście and Swinoujscie Ferry Terminal. The project, covered works and studies with the objective to develop the Motorways of the Sea infrastructure at the Port of Trelleborg, upgrade ICT in Trelleborg, and prepare grounds for the construction of a liquefied natural gas (LNG) bunkering facility at Świnoujście.

By the extension of its fairway, the Port of Trelleborg will ensure safe and efficient ship manoeuvres and increased sea-based capacity and accessibility. New breakwaters and two pier heads will be built, and four berths will be prepared for on-shore power supply at the Port of Trelleborg.

The intermodal terminal will be enlarged and upgraded in the new eastern part of the Port of Trelleborg. Cleaning of the ports storm water and one third of the storm water from the city will give a 70% removal of pollutants before the rainwater entering the Baltic Sea thanks to modernisation of the infrastructure.

A study on the LNG organisation will be commissioned by the Port of Świnoujście and a study on IT will be made by Swinoujscie Ferry Terminal. When these investments are completed, the maritime link between Trelleborg and Świnoujście will be able to prepare for proper handling of the shipping lines’ ferries, which are expected to be up to 40% larger than the currently deployed ships.

Green EFFORTS project had as primary objective to reduce energy consumption and improve energy mix to make it cleaner and to develop standardized control systems by modelling. Simulation models was developed to monitor the processes and to get a detailed picture of the energy consumption. The project also developed an implementation strategy together with education and motivation programs to increase awareness of energy consumption and its impact on the environment and the economy. Green EFFORTS was based on the material that was developed by the universities in a Europe based projects that were completed in 2009, called Effective Operations in Ports. Port of Trelleborg are delighted to have been selected to participate in the project together with partners with proven expertise in the various issues relating to environment. We also see that it is a supplement to the project we are responsible for – Clean Ship and even in our efforts to reduce energy consumption. Participation strengthens the port’s position as the Baltic climate smartest port. Concretely, this means besides we must help to address environmental issues that we also get grants for something that we would perform whatever in our environmental plan.
Lead partner was Jacobs University Bremen.

Our second TEN-T projects that we ran ourselves and in line with our Vision 2005. A new railway berth was completed in mid-2007. Modernization of check-in and check-out areas were completed in spring 2007. The new logistics centre was launched, and the first phase of the new intermodal terminal as well. In total, the Port of Trelleborg in a few years will have 10 RoRo modes for handling both road to rail vehicles. This extension enables a fifty percent traffic growth. The rebuilding of this phase was completed in 2009 and cost about 450 million, making it the largest investment in the port’s history. The background to the project is that the Port of Trelleborg believes in a strong increase in shipments in the South Baltic area over the next few years as a result of increased trade, not least with the EU’s new Member States. We also believe that the future freight routes between Scandinavia and Europe now is taking shape. With the implementation of the “Vision” in 2005 is the port well equipped to meet the future transport demand.
