Deep Demonstration workshop, Valenthia, Spain
From July 9thto 10th2019, a two-day workshop held in Valenthia port aiming to identify the design process of the Deep Demonstration project, funded by EIT Climate-KIC. During the event a small cohort of high-ambition port authorities in Valencia (Spain), Piraeus (Greece), Rotterdam (Netherlands), Turku (Finland) and others demonstrated how ambitious maritime hubs can be catalysts for reversing the fast-growing emissions from international shipping and trade hotspots. Dr. Phoebe Koundouri as representative of the team, which will coordinate the project for Greece, presented ATHENA research center’s vision on rendering the Port of Piraeus a resilient maritime HUB.
