The last conference day will link theory with practice: on a three-hour boat tour through the Port of Hamburg you will discover how, in Hamburg, intelligent port management works in practice.

Intelligent infrastructure, innovative mobility concepts and energy efficiency form part of the HPA’s strategy to make the Port of Hamburg a smartPORT.   

The tour through our intelligent port will give you the opportunity to experience the smartPORT from up close and look at some of the smartPORT project results.

To introduce you to the concept of smartPORT logistics, we will show you on site how we collect traffic and infrastructure information and how we use it. 

This tour will take you to our Vessel Traffic Service Centre, past several projects already under way in the Port of Hamburg under our smartPORT energy initiative.

You will be picked up from your hotel and brought to the pier, where you will board a launch boat that will take you on a tour through the port to show you some of our smartPORT energy projects.    
 

This tour will take you to the two project sites in the Port of Hamburg, where shore power is supplied to cruise ships. You will be picked up from your hotel and taken to the cruise terminal in Altona.

There you will have the opportunity to visit the first fixed shore power facility for cruise ships in Europe.
