TRANSPORT AND LOGISTICS STAKEHOLDERS NETWORK
In order to strengthen environmentally-friendly multimodal transport in central Europe it is essential to develop harmonised mechanisms of cooperation among freight transport stakeholders. The TalkNET project encourages and improves coordination among key stakeholders to strenghten the integration between ports, inland terminals, transport operators and policy makers.
Multimodality optimization and eco-innovation solutions were in the focus of the project as the two main fields of cooperation to establish transnational stakeholders' networks for freight transport. Project actions supported investments on last mile connections, terminal management efficiency, new intermodal services and on the deployment of alternative fuels and energy efficiency solutions.
The following results were achieved by the project:
- designing of new last mile infrastructures, improving connectivity to the main transport networks;
- implementation of new intermodal innovative and sustainable services road-rail;
- development of specific IT tools for the optimization of management and logistic processes/operations in the rail sector;
- development of new concept for the digitalisation in transport and logistics;
- tangible decrease in terms of environmental impacts, through investments for the reduction of energy consumption and costs, as well as for the reduction of carbon emissions through the deployment of alternative fuels;
- preparation of investments for e-mobility solutions in ports;
- successfull trainings with positive results in terms of energy efficiency.

ACTION PLANS
The following main changes have been achieved through the pilot actions to solve project challenges of multimodality and eco-innovation:
- Improvement of last mile rail infrastructures (Verona Freight Village) according to EU standards with an estimated growth of 50% productivity.
- Increased digitalisation of processes and logistics: development of new softwares in ports for shunting (port of Venice) and cargo loading (port of Rijeka), as well as for transport and logistics operators with a new methodology for warehouse management system (Codognotto Polska).
- 50% reduction of energy consumptions and costs, with installation of LED lighting and automated solutions (port of Koper).
- Support to the shift towards e-mobility in city logistics for the development of intermodal logistics center for low-emission delivery in the port of Budapest and the introduction of a zero-emission cargo zone in the city.
- Increased modal shift from road to rail - Gliwice-Piacenza - proving a reduction of C02 emissions up to 93%.
- Deployment of alternative fuels and CO2 reduction through a logistic model for LNG and LNG trucks usability, with a decrease of KgCO2 equal to almost 12% (Codognotto Polska).
- 40/50% energy savings through locomotives eco-driving trainings.
