As Ege Port Kuşadası, we believe our business and our work benefits society. This begins with a commitment to each of our employees. We encourage all of our staff to take part in volunteer projects and community service projects. As a subsidy of Global Ports Holding, we recognize that an efficient allocation of resources allows us to make a difference in a way that is truly rewarding. We make a concerted effort to be sensitive to local traditions and cultures and to incorporate those into everything we do. While this naturally includes complying with all international standards and local legal regulations, it also includes getting to know the local community and bringing them into our team.
To reduce reliance on external energy sources and increase the port’s energy independence, we have installed a 0.25 MVA solar energy system on the terminal building roof, capable of generating 400,000 kWh annually to meet the port’s own energy needs.
To reduce emissions and increase energy efficiency in port operations, we have replaced diesel-powered forklifts with electric models for use within the port area.
To reduce the environmental impact of ferries operating at the Ege Port Kuşadası, we have provided the necessary infrastructure for ferries docked at the port to receive electricity from the port grid instead of running their own machinery.
