THE SPECIAL SESSION: GREEN CORRIDORS IN EUROPE
Organizer: Laboratory for Maritime Transport, National Technical University of Athens
Moderator: Prof. H. N. Psaraftis, National Technical University of Athens, Greece, Project Manager, SuperGreen project.
Description of the session: Green corridors are an important concept in
European freight transport logistics and of EU transport policy in
general. They are characterised by a concentration of freight traffic
between major hubs and by relatively long distances of transport. Green
Corridors should in all ways be environmentally friendly, safe and
efficient. Green technologies and a smart utilisation of ICT, where
available, can be used improve related Key Performance Indicators
(KPIs). The purpose of this invited session will be to discuss and
debate important issues as regards the concept of green corridors in
Europe and outline prospects for the future.
