EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Key messages
The two mainports create important direct and indirect value for the Dutch economy, even if they are of limited importance in stimulating the growth of upcoming sectors like tourism and the creative industry Economic interdependences between the mainports are limited and unlikely to be a key success factor for the individual mainports, thereby limiting the need for a joint strategy. There are, however, areas of mutual interest that warrant a coordinated approach Schiphol could grow in volumes by a factor 1 to 7 towards 2040, mainly depending on developments after 2020 (developments until 2020 outlined in recent policy papers, such as the Luchtvaartnota). Growth beyond a level of 2.5-3x current volumes is likely to require major infrastructural works with relocation being the most extreme variant. Strategic choices need to be made on the basis of ambition level, no-regret moves that apply to all scenarios, and belief in the likelihood of specific scenarios. Questions that need to be addressed are, for instance:
What is the impact on The Dutch Economy, if Schiphol would become an airport with good European connections but limited direct intercontinental connections? What is the economic impact (direct and indirect) if Schiphol would become one of the 3 primary European intercontinental mega-hubs, considering Schiphol would grow with a factor 5-7 of todays volume? What are no-regret moves that are optimal in all scenarios, such as enlarging the catchment area through better hinterland connections and adaptive policy making to optimize flexibility around scenario-dependent moves?
A balanced choice needs to be made about which volumes of container cargo Rotterdam wants to attract and how these will be transported to the hinterland
Rotterdam could grow current throughput volume by a factor 1 to 2.5 until 2040, depending on which long-term CPB growth scenario will unfold. This growth would primarily be driven by container cargo Port capacity plans seem sufficient to accommodate growth as liquid bulk, which consumes most port capacity, is expected to grow maximum with a factor 1.5x versus current throughput. However, this could require targeted policies to optimize the use of available space and assume no wild swing factor that would trigger a bigger volume increase, such as the rise of alternative fuels Accommodating container volume growth would require large infrastructural investments to avoid major congestion issues in the hinterland, unless the modal split significantly changes thereby lowering the share of road traffic There might be a need to set priorities between expanding capacity versus policies to make optimal use of current infrastructure. Questions that therefore need to be addressed are, for instance:
Which cargo flows have the highest value-add and least negative externalities in the Netherlands? What are the best policy instruments to primarily attract high value-add flows and enforce an optimal modal split?
McKinsey & Company | 2
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Direct value-add is estimated at ~ 1% of GDP for Schiphol and ~ 2% of GDP for the Port of Rotterdam. Direct value add is defined as the GDP contribution of companies directly related to the mainports key transport and business functions Indirect value-add is estimated at ~2% of GDP for Schiphol and ~1% of GDP for the Port of Rotterdam the GDP. One element of indirect value-add is the role of mainports in attracting business to the Netherlands
Both mainports play a role in attracting business functions that rely on strong transport connections
Examples for Schiphol are European headquarters or training centers, for which easy transportation of people
is a key success factor
Examples for Rotterdam are European distribution centers, which depend on efficient, low-cost cargo
transportation infrastructure
Both mainports are of limited importance for attracting companies and activities not directly involved in either mainports key functions
Sectors that merely use the mainports, only require a basic level of connectivity and will not choose the
Netherlands as a location on the basis of its superior logistical hub function. Other factors, such as proximity to clients, availability and cost of talent, and the tax climate, are more important location decision criteria
The role of the Mainports in supporting the growth of upcoming sectors such as the creative sector and
tourism seems limited
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Primary interdependence comes from companies that are linked to Port of Rotterdam for their cargo flows and also use Schiphol to transport personnel and business relations. However, the spin-off effect on Schiphol is relatively small, contributing less than 1% of total business passengers Secondary interdependence comes from companies that use both Rotterdam and Schiphol for cargo transportation. Even though these companies benefit from access to two nearby major logistical hubs, this is not a key location decision factor, as all competing ports have a major airport within hours by truck
Areas of mutual interest exist for which a coordinated approach could benefit both mainports and the overall economy:
Although hinterland routes for the mainports differ by nature, easing congestion on one could have a positive spill-over effect for the other e.g., dedicated rail freight routes would benefit Rotterdam directly, while it would ease congestion of the passenger rail network, benefiting Schiphol Focused investments to improve the Dutch logistics talent pool, knowledge development and innovation could help both mainports to maintain their competitive positions. Logistics knowledge build-up through research and innovation is likely to have a beneficiary spill-over effect of knowledge for both mainports Government and related organizations involved in strategy and policy making for the mainports can learn from each other, which could result in better informed decisions at lower costs ***
As interdependence is limited, strategic choices for each mainport are discussed independent of the other
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Schiphol could grow in volumes by a factor of 1-7 towards 2040, depending on scenarios for passenger volumes and airline and airport industry structure developments
Air passenger volume growth is the key factor for determining future capacity constraints. Potential cargo volume growth is less of a factor as belly capacity free-rides on passenger flight movements and demand growth and full-freighters make up for only 4% of today's Schiphol flight movements. Air passenger volume growth will be driven by 5 demand factors towards 2040: real economic growth, degree of continued globalization, relative cost of flying, access to destinations, and availability of alternatives to flying. Depending on how the combination of these 5 demand drivers plays out, European air passenger volumes could grow by between 1 and 5% per annum, resulting in 1.4-5 times today's volumes by 2040
High growth scenario (up to 5 times today's volume): Continued economic globalization and a further reduction in
real cost of flying results in high leisure and business demand growth, in line with pre-crisis estimates of ~5% p.a.
Moderate growth scenario (up to 2.7 times today's volume): Slowdown of economic globalization, combined with
an increase of the real cost of flying, results in moderate leisure and business demand growth of ~3% p.a.
Low growth scenario (up to 1.4 times today's volume): A stop to further economic globalization, combined with a
steep increase in the real cost of flying due to high fuel cost, results in low demand growth of ~1% p.a.
The European airport industry structure primarily depends on the degree of airline consolidation and airport capacity constraints. Depending on the development of these key factors, the following 3 scenarios could unfold:
Schiphol is no longer a major hub (1-3.5 times today's volume): EU airline sector has consolidated into 3 major
players. Each carrier has concentrated its intercontinental hub activities in one mega-hub , facilitated by a stepchange in airport capacity. Schiphol is not one of these 3 hubs and has become a large 2nd tier airport, with specialized intercontinental routes and a large European network
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Schiphol is a mega-hub (1.9-7 times today's volume): EU airline sector has consolidated into 3 major players.
Each carrier has concentrated its intercontinental hub activities in one mega-hub, facilitated by a step-change in airport capacity. Schiphol has become one of these mega-hubs, with daily connections to more than 100 intercontinental destinations. Paris has been degraded to a large 2nd tier airport
The scenario that unfolds will determine whether major infrastructural investments are necessary
A growth factor up to ~2.5-3 times current volumes can possibly be accommodated at Schiphols current location, assuming selective policies, technological advances and/or less restrictive noise and environmental regulation. Measures to handle this growth include:
Overflow to regional airports: Transfer non-hub dependent traffic, especially LCC and charters, to overflow
airports such as Eindhoven and Lelystad
Optimize current use of infrastructure within safety limits and legal constraints, e.g., shorten take-off/landing
intervals; redefine noise restrictions; optimize the slot allocation and queuing system; increase pax/plane
Replace feeder flights with high-speed rail: This would reduce the burden on capacity from feeder flights (e.g.,
Brussels, Copenhagen), although potential impact may be small given the limited number of nearby feeder flights
Expand infrastructure at current location: Extend Schiphol with extra runways at the current location
A growth factor beyond 2.5-3 times current volumes is likely to require major infrastructural works, relocation being the most extreme of these. Two options for relocation are a dual hub system and a full relocation:
For a dual hub, the connection time between the two terminals should ideally be less than 5-10 minutes;
otherwise, the hub function will be undermined and transfer passengers will choose alternative routes
An airport at sea has been found to be technologically and environmentally possible. Being a first mover could
make Schiphol the largest European intercontinental hub, transforming the Netherlands into Europe's logistical centre of gravity for passenger transportation. However, there are questions around the cost-benefit trade-off
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Given the high level of uncertainty surrounding these scenarios, strategic choices need to be made on the basis of ambition level, no-regret moves that apply to all scenarios, and belief in the likelihood of the various scenarios. As the lead time of these types of projects spans several decades, procedures should be started as soon as possible if the ambition for Schiphol is a growth factor beyond 2.5-3 times current volumes
Define the ambition level regarding the role Schiphol should ideally play within the different scenarios that could unfold. Questions that would need to be addressed are, for instance:
What is the impact on the Dutch economy, if Schiphol would become an airport with good European connections but limited direct intercontinental connections? What is the economic impact (direct and indirect) if Schiphol would become one of the 3 primary European intercontinental mega-hubs, considering Schiphol would grow with a factor 5-7 of todays volume?
Define no-regret moves that are optimal in all scenarios, such as enlarging the catchment area through better hinterland connections, optimizing airside access, adapting policy making to optimize flexibility around scenariodependent strategic moves Define optimal actions per scenario, depending on the ambition level:
Carrier / alliance strategy: Which carrier / alliance should be given priority? Could a multi-carrier strategy be optimal in some scenarios? What should be done with non-alliance traffic on the hub? Strategic moves: How should Schiphol expand in the long run? Should it be relocated now, in the future or never?
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Rotterdam could grow current throughput volume by 1-2.6 times until 2040, depending on which long-term growth scenario will unfold. Containers and new liquid bulks are likely to account for the majority of this growth. Trade growth up to 2040 will be driven by 7 key volume drivers: real economic growth, delta factor cost between developing and OECD countries, fragmentation of supply chains, degree of globalization, cost of energy, level of recycling and depletion of raw materials, and the rise of new (liquid) commodities. Three scenarios could unfold:
High growth scenario: Continued globalization, further specialization of supply chains and rise of cheap alternative energies and new liquid fuels drive growth of containers to ~6 times and bulk to 1.5 times today's volumes. It remains doubtful whether a container growth of ~6 times is realistic, as this would imply a tremendous growth in consumption of physical goods per capita Medium growth scenario: Moderate economic growth, a continued difference in factor costs and expensive fuel drive growth of containers to ~3 times and bulk to 1.3 times today's volumes Low growth scenario: Low economic growth, high transport and energy costs and a no further globalization limit growth of containers to ~1.5 times, while bulk volumes decline to 0.7 times today's volumes
The scenario that unfolds will determine whether optimized use of currently planned infrastructure is sufficient, or if a step-change in infrastructural investments is required to avoid major congestion
Container growth: In all volume growth scenarios, planned storage and terminal capacity seem to be sufficient, but hinterland road capacity constraints need to be resolved
The 2nd Maasvlakte provides enough room for storage and terminal capacity in all scenarios Both barge and rail have sufficient capacity to handle 3-7 times the current volume, given that the terminals in
the port can digest the volumes for loading and unloading of both modalities
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Bulk growth: In a high growth scenario, planned terminal and hinterland capacity seem to be sufficient, but a step-change in infrastructure would be necessary to secure sufficient storage capacity
Barging and piping to the hinterland have enough capacity to accommodate even the high growth scenario For growth of up to 1.3 times current volumes, Rotterdam has little free space to accommodate potential liquid
bulk growth. Measures for freeing up capacity using current available space (incl. 2nd Maasvlakte) may include:
- Reducing strategic oil storage in the port by relocating storage to other locations, potentially abroad - Relocating dry bulk storage (especially ores and coals for foreign countries) to locations outside the port - Relocating liquid bulk storage capacity to the port of Amsterdam
Beyond 1.3 times current volumes, drastic measures seem necessary to accommodate growth. This might
include constructing a 3rd Maasvlakte
In the face of these capacity constraints, The Netherlands needs to make a balanced choice between volume growth accommodation and policies to attract cargo flows that add most value to the Dutch economy. In order to make this decision, several questions need to be answered:
Which cargo flows have the highest value-add and least negative externalities in the Netherlands? What are the best policy instruments to primarily attract high value-add flows and enforce optimal modal split?
