Agenda
• The GIFT project: Main aim & objectives
• Assessment Methodology
• List of Key Performance Indicators
• Assessment results
• Proposals for green intermodal freight transport in the S.E.E.
region
Main aim & objectives
The main aim of the current project is:
•
to map, analyze, and evaluate the status of the transport sector in the GIFT
transport network,
– propose new policies and strategies in infrastructure, processes, assets, ICT,
legislation, norms and harmonization/ standardization issues, and
– Develop tools & methodologies for CO2 emissions monitoring
–
.
…..in order to promote innovative green intermodal freight transport corridors.
•
Main objectives
– Identify current status of the freight transport sector
– Improve interoperability and intermodality of freight transport on land, IWW,
and sea
– Identify green corridors in the SEE region by promoting technical innovation and
a shift towards the least polluting and most efficient modes of transport
– Develop an ICT tool for CO2 footprint monitoring & certification
– Develop agreements & MoUs on multi-modal connections
Assessment methodology
o Use of KPIs for the assessment of the corridors based on 6 categories:
service quality & efficiency, infrastructure, environmental sustainability,
ICT, and Transport market/ Business players
o Collection of data from :
o EUROSTAT, EL.STAT., OECD
o Operational data from Key players /stakeholders from S.E.E. region
o EU reports and National Transport studies/roadmaps
o Data from NGOs and Int. Organizations (π.χ. W.H.O)
o Studies from consulting companies (McKinsey, Deloitte)
o Use of transportation models for the calculation of results in Corridor
