RESEARCH
In this phase, the port assesses whether the fuel is relevant. It identifies knowledge gaps, weighs pros and cons, and gauges interest among port stakeholders.

DEVELOPMENT
Here, strategic decisions are made on how to implement the fuel. Guidelines are developed based on assessments and testing, and a pilot project is carried out.

DEPLOYMENT
In this final phase, operations are scaled up, moving from individual projects to becoming an integrated and regular part of the port’s operations.
