Abstract
Developing a green and smart port is a significant progress in the specific application of energy conservation and emission reduction as well as intelligent technologies in global ports and maritime shipping sectors. The paper aims to analyze the inherent relationships among different structural factors and proposes specific countermeasures and governance policies for green and smart port construction. It uses interpretive structural modeling analysis to divide the factors into different levels, and draws a model map of green and smart port construction structure. The research result contributes to providing a theoretical basis for governments to formulate a green and smart port policies and establishing effective method systems and technical means for the port industry and stakeholders to leverage intelligent port technologies for the port development.
Highlights
A port is an important platform and node in the international maritime shipping network, and plays a catalyst role in world economic and trade development [1,2]
The fifth generation ports adapt to the green and intelligent technology innovation trend, emphasizing that the port production and service must fit the concept of green environmental protection and high-tech technology
Development of a green and smart port represents an inevitable trend for future ports
Summary
A port is an important platform and node in the international maritime shipping network, and plays a catalyst role in world economic and trade development [1,2]. The fifth generation ports adapt to the green and intelligent technology innovation trend, emphasizing that the port production and service must fit the concept of green environmental protection and high-tech technology. Under the premise of green ports, smart ports strengthen technological innovation and application to apply new technologies in port production organizations, reduce environmental pollution, and achieve the goal of the sustainable development of green ports. To systematically and scientifically associate critical factors for green and smart ports into a system, we must perform a systematic analysis of these factors and build up the governance framework for green and smart ports with the help of relevant models worked out This is the main purpose of this study. This paper will use Interpretative Structural Modeling to study the critical factors and governance framework for the development of a green and smart port.
