Project title:
- Energetic small ports in Central Baltic region, CB845
Project result:
- The project’s main results are Central Baltic small ports with improved energy efficiency and climate friendly services in a network of small ports in the whole CB area.
Programme:
- The Cooperation Programme “Interreg Central Baltic Programme” 2014-2020 financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
- Programme priority No. 3 “Well-connected region”; Specific Objective No. 3.2. “Improved services of existing small ports to improve local and regional mobility and contribute to tourism development”.
Aim of the project:
to provide climate friendly services to boaters in the Central Baltic region by investing in energy efficient technology and to formulate a joint network of energetic small ports that will be more cost efficient on operations, and jointly marketing the small ports to port visitors.
Project activities:
- Define energy efficiency of small ports and make a practical guidance on energy efficiency (energy saving and investments) to small ports.
- Do investments to energy efficient, green and safety services on land (e.g. solar energy, led lightning, floating bridges).
- Formulate a network of CB small ports (for small port operators with each other), and on an online platform (based on portmate.eu, marinamia.eu and Masapo/SmartMarina tools), study visits and boating fairs in Finland, Sweden and Germany together with marketing actions in social media.
