Projects

The goal of the CritSupPort research project is to develop cross-sectoral measures to strengthen Germany's supply security in the event of restricted port operations. The TUHH sub-project addresses the central role of ports as logistics hubs and critical nodes in freight transport.

The aim of DYNAPORT is to develop new optimisation and coordination tools for ports and ships that reduce the fuel consumption of ships by at least 10% and increase the efficiency of ports to the same extent. Performance indicators (KPIs) are being developed to quantify and measure these savings.

The Research Information System (FIS) is a scientifically based information portal on the topics of transport, mobility and urban development, available at www.forschungsinformationssystem.de. The MLS provides technical and editorial support for 12 knowledge maps and their approximately 305 synthesis reports in the field of "freight transport and logistics, maritime transport and inland navigation".

The Zero C project aims to create the necessary conditions in higher education in Albania and Montenegro to provide the shipping industry or governmental institutions with competent and industry-oriented employees. These employees of the future can either solve challenges such as decarbonization, energy transition and logistics optimization in practice or implement IMO and EU policies in the shipping sector. The project therefore supports the capacities of maritime Higher Education Institutions in the West Balkan.
