en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Maritime Safety Administration of China's Ministry of Transport today released the nation's first batch of "On-Time Cost-Saving" Green Wave Routes, integrating all domestic ports of call on international shipping routes into a unified coordination system and establishing a cross-regional linkage support mechanism. By fully implementing priority assurance and precise berthing, this mechanism addresses issues such as poor cross-port connectivity, high schedule volatility, and low turnaround efficiency. It achieves precise vessel berthing and highly efficient port turnaround, promotes lower route operation costs, and provides stable, efficient, low-carbon, and economical maritime logistics support for cross-border trade and international supply chains, further strengthening the global hub competitiveness of China's coastal port clusters. This marks a new phase of standardized and systematic development in the coordinated growth of China's port and shipping sectors, as well as cost reduction and efficiency improvement in maritime logistics.

Yang Min, a First-Class Principal Staff Member at the Command Center of Zhejiang Maritime Safety Administration, explained that Green Wave Routes can be compared to the green wave speed on highways. Under the traditional model, ports mostly adopt a first-come, first-berthed operation arrangement. After switching to a schedule-priority model, vessels can sail at economical speeds throughout the entire journey. It is estimated that the schedule reliability of a single route can be improved by over 30%, and carbon emissions can be reduced by at least 1,000 tons per vessel per voyage.
