ReGiS, respecting the European deadline set for 30 June".
Benevolo pointed out that with these funds "we have not only
unlocked extraordinary investments, we have also returned to the
territory brownfield areas transformed into energy parks and
implemented technologies capable of reducing environmental impact
of port activities".
Of the nine projects, the interventions relating to the
construction of a photovoltaic system in the former Sarom refinery

A disused industrial area of 44 hectares. On about 34 hectares it is
a photovoltaic system with a
total power of 37.16 MWp, capable of generating energy
clean with zero emissions. The remaining portions of land were
enhanced and transformed into wooded areas with filter functions and
ecological mitigation.
Phase 1 of the installation of a
cold ironing system at the Passenger Terminal quay
of the port of Ravenna. It was also carried out
the grid infrastructure that will connect the energy produced
from the new photovoltaic park directly to the Cruise Terminal of
Porto Corsini. This system will allow ships to
moored cruise to turn off the auxiliary engines on board,
eliminating noise and air pollution in that area of the
Port of Ravenna. The Port Authority has specified that in the meantime it is being completed
phase 2, and in the coming months some activities will be completed
ancillary to the project which involves the burial of several

of digitization of the port logistics chain through the
Port Community System (PCS), thanks to which operators,
freight forwarders and authorities involved in the supply chain can now
exchange information and documents in an integrated, secure and in-depth way
real-time, reducing waiting times and long paper passages
the entire logistics chain.The MACSecurity project, dedicated to the
