Notes

  •  Funding details: Chalmers Tekniska Högskola; Funding details: Energimyndigheten; Funding text 1: The authors acknowledge the case companies who provided data used in our research. The research was supported by the Swedish Energy Agency (Enerimyndigheten) under the grant given to the “Increased Transport Efficiency through Reduced Empty Positioning of Containers” project conducted by SSPA and Chalmers University of Technology. This paper is part of a series of studies, both quantitative and qualitative, aimed at clarifying the dynamics of ECR and improving the energy efficiency of such operations. 
  • Trade imbalances and global disturbances generate mismatches in the supply and demand of empty containers (ECs) that elevate the need for empty container repositioning (ECR). This research investigated dry ports as a potential means to minimize EC movements, and thus reduce costs and emissions. We assessed the environmental and economic effects of two ECR strategies via dry ports—street turns and extended free temporary storage—considering different scenarios of collaboration between shipping lines with different levels of container substitution. A multi-paradigm simulation combined agent-based and discrete-event modelling to represent flows and estimate kilometers travelled, CO2 emissions, and costs resulting from combinations of ECR strategies and scenarios. Full ownership container substitution combined with extended free temporary storage at the dry port (FTDP) most improved ECR metrics, despite implementation challenges. Our results may be instrumental in increasing shipping lines’ collaboration while reducing environmental impacts in up to 32 % of the inland ECR emissions. © 2023 The Author(s)
