Real time monitoring of regulated and non-regulated emissions from all types of vessels and other port activities in order to enforce emission limits in waterfront cities

Funds real-time port and vessel emissions-monitoring technology demonstrated across six European ports.

ClosedEuropean CommissionEU

Activities can start at any technology readiness level but have to reach TRL 7-8 by the time the project ends. Whatever data the project produces has to be FAIR -- findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable -- and proposals have to fully address the cybersecurity of any interoperable systems handling that data. Beyond the ports themselves, proposals have to show how they will engage named au

The Commission wants projects that demonstrate real-time, tamper-proof measurement of regulated and non-regulated pollutants from ships and port operations, across at least six Trans-European Transport Network ports spanning multiple sea basins, to support future compliance monitoring and enforcement.
