Increasing port performance is a key priority, to ensure that increasing container volumes will continue to be handled (cost) effectively and reliably in the port and transported to/from the hinterland. The port is also investing in the sustainability of the entire chain. The expansion of the container terminals is fully CO2 neutral, and the terminals are investing in shore power installations. Together with market parties the port of Rotterdam is enabling the transition to new fuels for transportation. The industry is on the brink of a system change, where improvements will require multi-modal decisions.
And there is a lot going on: if there are no drastic geopolitical or economic disruptions, our analysts expect the Northwest European container market to grow 2-3% in the coming years. To facilitate that growth, the port of Rotterdam will expand its container capacity, sustainably and within its existing physical footprint. The capacity of the hinterland chain will need to accompany the seaside capacity growth. The development and implementation of smart data solutions, such as the Portbase developments, provide an important contribution. The partnerships between the various parties in the supply chain are another important factor.
In this special edition totally dedicated to the global logistics chain, you will find a bundle of articles and interviews on the container supply chain that runs via Rotterdam. This digital publication is designed to keep you, our valued partner, informed about the latest developments.
