E-Logistics in NSR Harbour Cities (E-Harbours)
Start date: Aug 31, 2010, End date: Aug 30, 2013 PROJECT FINISHED

E-Harbours aims to create a lasting change towards sustainable energy logistics for NSR harbour cities. It will set innovative energy standards to create a transformation of the energy network in harbour areas. Show cases will provide examples for the NSR, guided by a European expert platform. By this the project will implement EU energy policies, develop innovative solutions and allow economic growth.
