The Blue Supply Chains project shows that greener transport is possible when port authorities and operators work hand in hand. At the heart of this effort is the Rostock\u2013Trelleborg railferry connection \u2014 a vital freight link between Germany and Sweden that became the testing ground for how cooperation can make entire transport chains greener.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The Rostock\u2013Trelleborg corridor is a perfect example. This route is one of the main arteries connecting Central Europe with Scandinavia. Traditionally, much of the cargo has moved by truck. That means more congestion, more noise, and more CO\u2082. But shifting freight from road to rail, combined with efficient ferry transport, can cut emissions significantly. It only works if ports and operators align their efforts.<\/p>\n<p>The message is simple: the green transition is not only about new machines or fuels. It\u2019s about cooperation. And if cooperation can make the Rostock\u2013Trelleborg railferry greener, it can transform many other transport chains across Europe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text]<style>.vcex-button.vcex_6af33d86e3648{width:100%;background:#195fa1;}<\/style><div class=\"vc_custom_1794296548749 wpex-clr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/interreg-baltic.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/D1.3-Roll-of-Port-Authorities-in-the-set-up-of-green-transport-chains.pdf?project=bluesupplychains\" class=\"vcex-button theme-button inline redButton set_TB_Margin wpex-flex-shrink-0 vcex_6af33d86e3648\" target=\"_blank\" download rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"vcex-button-inner theme-button-inner wpex-flex wpex-flex-wrap wpex-items-center wpex-justify-center\">Output &#8211; The Railferry Pilot<\/span><\/a><\/div> [\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column css_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; visibility=&#8221;hidden&#8221; offset=&#8221;vc_col-xl-inherit vc_col-lg-inherit vc_col-md-12 vc_col-sm-inherit&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<p>I am text block.
