  4. IAPH Tool Box for Port Clean Air Programs • Web-based planning guide for port clean air programs • No one-size-fits-all approach • Measures for each of major emission sources • Measures & tools readily available, including application cases and pros/cons IAPH

  5. On-Shore Power Supply • Ship emission controls by MARPOL Annex VI entering into force in 2005 and revised in 2008. • Shut down ship engines completely while at berth • In 2007, IAPH set up WG for international technical standard of AMP with ISO • In 2009, IEC & ISO adopted PAS for HVSC IAPH

  11. Prepare for Climate Change Impacts - adaptation action • Mitigation alone is not sufficient, ports must prepare for impacts of climate change-Adaptation • IAPH Port Planning & Development Committee tasked to study adaptation measures for ports • Joint survey with US Stanford University on how ports see climate change as risk and how they prepare for. IAPH
