The liner shipping network design delivers schedules and routes for ships that continuously visit harbours on a closed round trip. Examples of such ships are container ships that in many cases maintain a weekly harbour visiting frequency. In this thesis, a liner shipping network design approach is elaborated which is not only considering the harbours to be visited, cargo to be transported and number of ships available, but for the first time also considers environmental influences. Additionally, next to allowing for different speed settings on different segments of the round trip, the revenue contribution of alternative propulsion system can also be analysed. Extensive numerical test indicate that significant saving are obtained when using this liner shipping network design approach.
