Co-operation

Create a working group with relevant parties
To build up a clear and comprehensive idea of the potential for OPS at a particular port requires input from many different parties. It is therefore advisable to set up a working group comprising experts and representatives from different stakeholder groups to discuss the issue and create a well-founded business case.

Stakeholders
The following stakeholders should be involved:

• the port authority
• the targeted shipping lines (frequent-callers)
• the terminal operator
• the local community
• suppliers of electricity and automation technology
• environmental engineers
