01 Capacity fields 12 ● Observations - few existing cases A quick geographical description The capacity fields refer to large areas dedicated to industrial activities requiring generous surfaces. They are generally located downstream, at the mouth of the river or sometimes in reclaimed land, far from urban centres. They can be considered gateways to vast territories and massive flows, have significant land reserves and are home to a great proportion of national industrial and energy production -even though this might happen in a setting of slower growth. Observed advantages and disadvantages Their isolation and private access to facilities required by safety standards allow them to carry out activities that generate noise or odours. This physical distance is countered thanks to the many infrastructural investments that are made to connect these areas as effectively as possible to the landside by road, rail, and waterway networks. On the other hand, concessions are usually less expensive than in the vicinity of cities, and they cater to big installations. Furthermore, the physical colocation of companies makes viable to share services and facilities that can result in some form of industrial symbiosis. Unfortunately, their position in places where freshwater and seawater meet, means they are in the midst of a particularly rich and fragile biodiversity, which these capacity fields tend to ignore (e.g. irresponsible dredging) or damage (e.g. toxic spills) for the sake of their own operational efficiency. Different situations analysed The comparative analysis shows that most of these industrial-logistical complexes are investing on a post-oil future, focusing on the (partial) reconversion of the petrochemical industry. Their logistical requirements also evolve, making some areas less profitable and even redundant. For example, in Antwerp, the port authority is currently reserving the Churchill Dock for an innovative project in terms of sustainability, energy transition, added value, enhancing employment… In the Port of Le Havre, the port’s large land reserves are partly unexploited due to their environmental quality and the nationally imposed protection, what forces the port to adopt a strategy of densification of existing land rather than an expansionary strategy.
