Sea ports need high-energy supplies and are a source of air pollution, two environmental problems that can be minimized by using renewable energy. Considering the convergence of resources, infrastructures and facilities in ports, marine renewable energy arises as a promising alternative. PORTOS aims to assess, develop and promote the integrated use of renewable energy resources in Atlantic Area ports and increase their energy efficiency, establishing a roadmap to a more competitive and sustainable sector. The main objective is to develop and promote the implementation of renewable energy, especially marine renewable energies such as wave, tidal and wind energy, at Atlantic Area ports, as to impact two environmental priorities for ports: reduction of greenhouse gases emissions and air pollution by providing renewable energy-based solutions to harvest the renewable energy potential of Atlantic Area coastal areas. Moreover, PORTOS aims to increase the ports energy efficiency, establishing a roadmap to a more competitive and sustainable sector, mitigating climate change. (English)
