BLUE PORTS | D2.5 Identification of present and future skills needs 127detail.Carbon footprintanalystsEnvironmentalprotectionThe Carbon FootprintAnalyst specializes inquantifying, managing,and reducinggreenhouse gasemissions associatedwith port operations.They collect andanalyse data on energyconsumption,transportationactivities, and wastegeneration to calculatecarbon footprints andidentify emissionhotspots. Byconducting lifecycleassessments andrecommendingemission reductionstrategies, they helpports mitigate theirenvironmental impactand achieve carbonneutrality goals.Data Analysis:Proficiency in collecting,organizing, and analysingdata related to carbonemissions andenvironmental impacts.Carbon Accounting:Knowledge of carbonaccountingmethodologies, emissionfactors, and calculationtechniques used toquantify greenhouse gasemissions across varioussectors.Attention to Detail: Strongattention to detail toensure accuracy andprecision in datacollection, calculation,and reporting of carbonemissions.Regulatory Knowledge:Awareness of relevantenvironmentalregulations, reportingrequirements, andindustry standardsrelated to carbonfootprinting andgreenhouse gasmanagement.Ports may implementinitiatives to monitorand track carbonemissions from varioussources within the port,including maritimeshipping, terminaloperations, and landtransport. CarbonFootprint Analysts areresponsible forcollecting, analysing,and reporting data oncarbon emissions,providing insights intoemission trends andidentifying areas forreduction. In addition,Carbon FootprintAnalysts engage withinternal and externalstakeholders, includingport authorities,terminal operators,shipping companies,and environmentalorganizations, tocommunicate carbonfootprint data, solicitfeedback on emissionsreduction initiatives,and fostercollaboration towardsshared sustainabilityobjectives.Carbon captureand storageengineersEnvironmentalprotectionCarbon Capture andStorage Engineersfocus on thedevelopment andimplementation oftechnologies tocapture and storecarbon emissionsgenerated by portoperations. The maindifference betweenthis position and theprevious one is thatthis is a moretechnical position andthe previous one ismore of a situationTechnical Proficiency:Mastery of engineeringprinciples andtechniques relevant tocarbon capture,transport, and storagesystems.Problem-Solving Skills:Ability to identify complextechnical challenges anddevelop innovativesolutions to overcomethem.Quality Assurance: Abilityto maintain highstandards of quality in allPorts may invest incarbon capturetechnologies such aspost-combustioncapture, precombustion capture, oroxy-fuel combustion toreduce emissions fromport operations.Carbon Capture andStorage engineers leadthe design,implementation, andoperation of carboncapture and storageprojects within portfacilities, ensuring the
