Vision
Kildn aims to become the world’s first zero-emission port for international, national and local passenger ferries, as well as being a home port for cruise ships, fjord tourism and a regional fast ferry network.

Kildn’s three main objectives

Home port

To be a home port for cruise ships, fjord tourism and a regional fast ferry network

Zero-emission port

To be the first zero-emission port in Norway, capable of generating, storing and distributing its own renewable energy

Green jobs

New green jobs and premises for companies and organisations, particularly in the clean energy and destination sectors

Political framework

There are a number of policy documents at an international, national, regional and local level describing the future that Norway aspires to. One stated aim is to become a zero-emission society by 2030. The government wants Norway to become a zero-emission society by 2030. The Norwegian government’s Action Plan for Green Shipping, for example, states that all Norwegian ports shall be zero-emission ports by no later than 2030.
