Beleidsstudie van het Europees Parlement (TRAN) over walstroom
Sustainable Ships co-authored an assessment of pricing and price transparency for e-charging and onshore power supply (OPS) for the European Parliament. The work examined how OPS tariffs are structured across European ports under AFIR and FuelEU Maritime, finding that shore power is typically supplied under monopoly conditions with no common EU pricing standard, which creates a clear risk of unreasonable and hard-to-compare tariffs.
Technische beoordeling walstroom HVSC-containeterminal
Subcontracted by Seabridges, Sustainable Ships provided an independent technical review of a high-voltage shore power (HVSC) installation for large container ships, working alongside Seabridges. The review covered system architecture, electrical integration with the terminal grid, and compliance with IEC/IEEE 80005 standards, supporting the client in validating key technical decisions and reducing implementation risk.
Mobiele Walstroomdiensten voor de oostkust van de Verenigde Staten
Sustainable Ships assisted in developing a business case and go-to-market strategy for a mobile onshore power supply (OPS) service targeting major ports along the U.S. Gulf and East Coast. The work supports evaluation of commercial viability through the use of AIS data and Sustainable Ships’ Database, deployment strategy, and regulatory alignment for mobile OPS solutions.
Power Barge SIF
Sustainable Ships is supporting Sif with a techno-economic business case to assess a mobile shore power solution with battery storage at the Sif terminal on Maasvlakte 2 in Rotterdam. The study evaluates whether a flexible, non-fixed shore power concept can reduce vessel emissions while meeting regulatory and operational requirements.
Haalbaarheidsstudie walstroom Suriname
Sustainable Ships provided concept-level technical and economic support for the development of shore power infrastructure at the COMPORT port in Suriname. The work focused on defining viable shore power concepts, required equipment, and indicative investment costs for both port infrastructure and vessel retrofits.
Project BOEI
Sustainable Ships performed a techno-economic feasibility study for the Province of South Holland and InnovationQuarter on offshore charging of tankers at the Scheveningen anchorage. The study combined technical assessment with economic analysis and was supported by a purpose-built parametric tool to explore design and cost sensitivities, concluding that offshore charging is both technically and economically feasible.
Port of Rotterdam
Sustainable Ships provided the Port of Rotterdam with a techno-economic shore power feasibility study and a custom assessment tool for shipowners. The work estimated conversion costs, identified key technical challenges, and outlined applicable standards and retrofit requirements for connecting vessels to shore power. The study enables shipowners to quickly assess the technical implications and indicative costs of shore power conversion, supporting informed investment and retrofit decisions.
