This dataset is a balanced annual panel of eight container ports across five Eastern Mediterranean countries over the period 2005 to 2023, assembled to support econometric analysis of the long-run relationships between container throughput, logistics infrastructure, national renewable energy integration, and exposure to the European Union Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). The ports are Tripoli and Beirut (Lebanon), Mersin and Iskenderun (Türkiye), Piraeus (Greece), Limassol (Cyprus), and Alexandria and Damietta (Egypt), yielding 152 port-year observations.<br /><br /> The dataset contains the dependent variable (annual container throughput in TEU and its natural logarithm) alongside port-level, country-level, and year-level explanatory variables. These include national renewable electricity share, gross domestic product, foreign direct investment, the World Bank Logistics Performance Index components for customs and infrastructure, the UNCTAD Liner Shipping Connectivity Index, a constructed carbon exposure coefficient combining sector carbon intensity from EDGAR with European Union export shares for the six CBAM sectors from UN COMTRADE, the annual average European Union Emissions Trading System allowance price from the European Energy Exchange, and a derived carbon border exposure measure. Three structural break dummies capture the 2011 Syrian conflict, the COVID-19 period, and the 2020 Beirut port explosion.<br /><br /> Two variables are recorded as structural zeros: onshore power supply and on-site port renewable capacity are both confirmed absent across all ports and years, reflecting the nascent state of green port infrastructure in the region through 2023. The dataset is import-ready for panel estimators including Pooled Mean Group, Cross-Section Augmented Distributed Lag, and Common Correlated Effects Mean Group, and is supplied with a full codebook documenting variable definitions, units, construction methods, and sources, together with a provenance log distinguishing confirmed from derived values.
