València, 14 March 2024.- Valenciaport has presented at the Let Expo Trade Show in Verona (an event dedicated to logistics, transport and sustainable business services) its projects to accelerate decarbonization, promote energy transition and the fight against climate change. Among them, the “winner combo” that represents the connectivity of maritime transport together with rail transport has been highlighted, highlighting the imminent launching of the maritime-rail freeway of Valenciaport with Italy.
The president of the PAV, Mar Chao, has intervened in the table ‘International transport: new strategies, new technologies and new horizons’, a panel discussion on logistics and supply chain in Europe along with other professionals in the sector. In it, Chao has detailed the strategic projects being carried out by the PAV in terms of sustainable infrastructure such as investment in railroads, photovoltaic plant projects -such as the solar roof being built on the Grimaldi silo, which will produce 11% of the electricity consumed by the Port of València-, the ValenciaportPCS tool -a key part in the digital transformation-, electrification or the commitment to last mile transport that consumes green fuels.
In his speech, Mar Chao also stressed that Valenciaport’s commitment to the decarbonization of the activity also involves partners and customers and the entire port community and that is why it is working together.
