Aegis - Potential transfer from road transport to short sea shipping in Denmark
This report delves into the potential transition of goods from road transport to short sea shipping in Denmark. Analyzing both national and international scenarios, it explores the time-value of goods, price structures, and the critical factors influencing the shift. Key findings highlight the importance of overall transport costs, varying acceptability of longer transport times for different goods, and skepticism regarding the cost competitiveness of short sea solutions. The report estimates a yearly potential of approximately 5 million tonnes of goods to be shifted, constituting around 18% of relevant trucked goods, contingent on short-sea-shipping being economically competitive.
