Ports received nearly $40 million in federal grants from the U.S. Department of Transportation in the FY 2023 round of funding through the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) program.

Sustainability increasingly is at the forefront of the strategic mission of ports throughout North America, but successfully meeting ambitious green energy goals is rarely a straightforward process.

Building flexible, sustainable and green infrastructure is imperative for seaports to ensure responsiveness to an ever-changing and dynamic maritime market. At the Port of Everett, we are building for a bigger, greener, more prosperous future through major seaport investments that integrate green infrastructure, environmental restoration and climate change readiness.

As sustainability assumes a more prominent place in just about every port’s vision of its future, master planning and other strategic planning efforts increasingly are ensuring infrastructure proposals are closely aligned with ports’ sustainability needs.
