Green Corridor at Short Straits (GCSS): feasibility study into establishing a Green Corridor between Port of Dover and the Ports of Calais and Dunkirk

在该项目中，多佛-加莱/敦刻尔克绿色走廊联合体重点关注多佛港（PoD）与加莱港和敦刻尔克港之间实施绿色走廊（GC）的发展和可行性。该项目以多佛-加莱/敦刻尔克航线为可行性案例，并将调查走廊的可行能源途径，为实施GC提供基于滚装滚卸（Ro/Ro）汽车、货车、卡车和载客渡船的商业案例和交付计划。波达方向是英国最繁忙的渡轮港口，占英国-欧盟贸易的33%，占所有英国-欧盟渡轮运输的59%。因此，致力于实现可持续地提供通往欧洲的最短通道的独特能力和弹性的未来，对于PoD和加莱/敦刻尔克港口，对于港口客户以及英国都至关重要。GCSS项目合作伙伴将合作八个月，以识别和分析整个价值链，并确定海上和陆上船舶和车辆的可行能源路径选项。将对所有可行的能源途径进行井到唤醒和井到车轮分析，以评估每一途径的直接和间接环境影响。分析还将确定相关的法规和政策，GC如何遵守这些法规，并确定成功实施GC所需的任何缺失的政策措施。该项目最终将产生一个GC商业案例和路线图，既可用于扩大零排放船舶和相应陆地基础设施的数量，也可用于吸引私营部门投资，并在其他地方复制走廊。该项目不仅将支持PoD实现碳净零的雄心。（范围1和2），但也确保代表整个港口，区域系统和投资界的财团成员可以成为第一个GC的一部分。该项目还将有助于支持英国对缔约方大会第26届会议商定的《克莱德班克宣言》的承诺，并最终帮助实现英国“清洁海事计划”的零排放航运目标，该计划设想英国到2050年成为清洁航运的全球领导者。它还将为客户提供一系列低碳选择，以在这条重要航线上运输乘客和货物。

In this project the Dover-Calais/Dunkirk Green Corridor consortium focuses on the development and feasibility of implementing a green corridor (GC) between the Port of Dover (PoD) and the Ports of Calais and Dunkirk. The project takes the Dover--Calais/Dunkirk route, as its feasibility case and will investigate viable energy pathways for the corridor providing a business case and delivery plan for the implementation of a GC, based on roll on, roll off (Ro/Ro) car, van, truck, and passenger carrying ferry vessels. PoD is the busiest ferry port in the UK, responsible for 33% of UK-EU trade, and 59% of all UK-EU ferry movements. Therefore, working towards a future where the unique capacity and resilience of the shortest crossing to Europe can be sustainably delivered is of utmost importance to both PoD and the Ports of Calais/Dunkirk, for port customers, as well as the UK.The GCSS project partners will collaborate for eight months to identify and analyse the full value chain and determine viable energy pathway options for both marine and landside vessels and vehicles. A Well-to-Wake and Well-to-Wheel analysis will be completed on all viable energy pathways to assess direct and indirect environmental impacts for each pathway. The analysis will also identify relevant regulations and policy, how a GC would comply with these regulations and identify any missing policy measures that are required to successfully implement a GC. The project will ultimately produce a GC business case and route map that can be used to both scale up the number of zero-emission vessels and corresponding landside infrastructure, but also to attract private sector investment and replicate the corridor elsewhere.The project will not only support PoD's ambition to be carbon net-zero (for scope 1 and 2) by 2025 but also ensures the consortium members, representing the whole port, regional systems, and the investment community can be a part of the first GC. The project will also help support the UK's commitment to the Clydebank Declaration, which was agreed at COP 26, and ultimately help meet the zero emission shipping ambitions of the UK's 'Clean Maritime Plan', envisaging the UK as a global leader in clean shipping by 2050\. It will also allow customers a range of low carbon choices to transport passengers and freight on this vital route.
