GlobalGlobal trends influencing intermodal chain trends influencing intermodal chain(tomorrow) (tomorrow)
A. Sustainability (environmental restrictions & opportunities)
B. Energy (search alternatives)
C. Constraints infrastructures (smarter use existing infra)
5
Basic intermodal processBasic intermodal process
Cargo flows origin - destination through transport chain comprising more than one mode
Freight forwarders need to know intermodal alternatives
Intermodal product need to be as efficient as road
Consolidation of freight; corridors ; terminals (Threshold intermodal transport still too high for SME’s

Germany has dense network of terminals, unique in EU Terminals differ in size and services in relation to transport demand Strong focus on hinterland transport Hamburg/Bremen / Netherlands to hinterland

Competition on the shelve, not on the road (or other modes)
Innovative models for logistics horizontal collaboration
Manufacturing industries & LSP sharing capacity, saving revenues + CO2
New Logistics

This is bad for both profitability and environment

Freight & logistics are industrial veins of supply chains Efficiency; making smart use of existing infrastructure Investing in electrification of transport industry (rail/terminals)
TEN-T consultation, EIA stressed CO2 = saving for authorities
‘Logistics message’ EIA to cabinet EU authorities(President Barroso; Commissioner Kallas; EP)
Transport Commissioner KALLAS receives EIA delegation, 2011+2012
Cabinet President BARROSO receives EIA delegation, April 2012
