Navigating Decarbonization in Marine Ports: Catalysts for Green Shipping Corridors

Maritime transportation plays a vital role in global trade and commerce but poses significant challenges to environmental sustainability due to its reliance on fossil fuels. This research will address the urgent need for decarbonization in marine ports and the establishment of green shipping corridors to mitigate emissions and enhance environmental sustainability. The research employs a multi-faceted approach, starting with a comprehensive literature review to understand current practices and challenges. Stakeholder engagement through survey questionnaires and interviews will capture diverse perspectives on decarbonization strategies and priorities. Analysis of stakeholder responses will yield valuable insights and inform evidence-driven strategies and policy recommendations. The expected outcomes include the identification of innovative technologies, best practices, and policy interventions to drive decarbonization efforts in marine ports. By fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange, the project aims to accelerate the transition to sustainable shipping practices and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The potential impact of the research extends beyond environmental benefits to include economic resilience, public health improvements, and community well-being. Ultimately, this research seeks to contribute to a more sustainable and resilient maritime transportation system, aligned with global efforts to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
