PIONEERS and MAGPIE projects deliver green port master plan and digital tools

Two EU-funded Horizon 2020 projects, PIONEERS and MAGPIE, have concluded five years of work by delivering a Green Port Master Plan to the European Commission alongside free digital tools available to any European port, extending the benefits of the work beyond the 90 partner organisations in the two consortia. PIONEERS, coordinated by the Port of Antwerp-Bruges with the ports of Barcelona, Venlo and Constanța, ran 19 demonstrations spanning clean energy, digital innovation and sustainable port design over the programme period. MAGPIE, coordinated by the Port of Rotterdam with HAROPA PORT, Sines and DeltaPort, tested 14 solutions across the same themes. Both projects were launched under the European Green Deal framework. The practical outputs are designed for broad adoption.
