The port of the future

Sustainability and digitalization are topics that are currently
having a major effect on the logistics sector. And ports, which
act as the hubs for global trade, are no exception here. Port
operators are also having to face up to the crucial issue of how
technical innovations, digital solutions and sustainable
strategies can help them serve customers’ future needs in an
efficient and sustainable manner. Uwe Oppitz, the Managing
Director of Rhenus Ports, talks about how the requirements for
port operators are being transformed at the current time, what
effect changing flows of goods are having on the work being
performed at ports and what role sustainability is playing for
the port of the future. The special feature here is these
impressions come directly from where all the action is taking
place: Logistics People Talk has visited the Niedersachsenbrücke
facility in Wilhelmshaven, one of the largest handling terminals
for coal in Germany, which is facing reorganization during the
next few years because the days of coal as a source of energy are
now limited.
