Project e-Port

The e-Port Marine Digital Twin project aims to revolutionize the maritime and port logistics sector by creating an integrated, real-time digital twin platform that connects ship and port operations. As 90% of global logistics depend on maritime transportation, the need for a seamless and efficient system has never been greater. e-Port addresses key challenges such as operational inefficiencies, safety risks, high maintenance costs, and environmental compliance. The platform provides continuous, reliable communication between ships and ports by integrating real-time data from IoT sensors, predictive analytics, and multimodal communication technologies—including cellular, satellite, and VHF networks.

The platform’s innovations include real-time monitoring of ships, port equipment, and cargo operations, AI-driven predictive maintenance tools to reduce downtime, and automation for docking and cargo handling processes. This will result in smoother port logistics, reduced emissions, enhanced safety, and compliance with international sustainability standards. The system also enables ports to track fuel consumption and emissions in real-time, contributing to environmental sustainability.

e-Port’s scalability and modular architecture will make it applicable to ports of all sizes globally, with significant growth opportunities in Europe, Africa, and Asia. By improving operational efficiency and reducing environmental impacts, e-Port supports global trade, positioning ports as competitive and sustainable logistics hubs for the future.
