Abstract

The contribution of port operational activities to climate change has made it a research focus of increasing concern. To identify the news and characteristics of research on carbon emissions in the maritime transport sector, this study used the “Scopus” and “Web of Science” databases for the period 2020-2024. In addition, we identify the contributions of the most cited review articles. The results of the analysis highlight that port carbon emission reduction strategies involve operational optimization, equipment transformation and energy management and that the inherent gaps between ports present challenges in establishing a standard methodology at the global level. Future research avenues have been suggested, such as comprehensive assessment of emission sources, harmonization of estimation methods, equipment-integrated planning, port automation and electrification, and energy management. This study guides the progress of port carbon emission assessment and reduction, thus enabling port operators to manage production efficiently.
