Gemiddelde walstroomvraag Masterclass
How much power does a ship actually draw at berth? The same vessel can vary by 300%, sister ships doing exactly the same can differ by 30%, and Tankers of the same size can differ tenfold in installed capacity. This masterclass explains the methodology we use to estimate average shore power demand per ship category, using GT-based scaling functions and calibrated load factors built on 7,102 ships and 153 measured datasets.
Hoe energieopslag geld verdient met het elektriciteitsnet: een ontwikkelaarsgids voor inkomsten uit netdiensten
Batteries can earn money from the grid in three ways: balancing (steady capacity fees), trading (price spreads), and congestion management (local activation). But grid services are fragmented by country, operator, and product: what works in the Netherlands doesn't work in Germany. This guide shows energy storage developers how to stack these three revenue streams for maximum ROI. Intended for developers in port environments.
Wat kost het om aan boord van een schip elektriciteit op te wekken?
This case study determines the cost of generating electricity onboard a ship using auxiliary diesel engines to determine when it is more cost-effective to purchase electricity from the grid in port. Results show that fuel costs alone sit around $0.20 per kWh, but once regulatory compliance costs are layered on top, the total effective costs rise sharply to $1.00 per kWh by 2040.
Walstroomvraag naar elektriciteit in EU-havens vanaf 2030
Accurate estimation of shore power demand at EU ports has become essential due to strict regulations like AFIR, which requires electrification for 90% of port calls by container and passenger ships at TEN-T ports by 2030. This blog evaluates three methods—using EU MRV fuel data, Sustainable Ships’ ship-specific power database, and ICCT research—to estimate the Total Addressable Market (TAM) for shore power. Results show the total annual electricity demand across EU ports is between approximately 6 and 13 TWh, highlighting the significant scale of infrastructure investment ahead.
Businesscase voor een offshore-bouwschip met een walstroombatterij
This case study evaluates a mobile shore power battery barge designed for an offshore construction vessel in the Port of Rotterdam. An average power demand of 2.4 MW and a peak demand of 5 MW is assumed. This results in the requirement of twelve 20-ft containerized batteries integrated into a High Voltage Shore Connection (HVSC) system. Total costs of the power barge are estimated at $9.5M with a yearly revenue of approx. $2.5M.
Businesscase voor een feedermax-containerschip met een walstroombatterij
This case study evaluates a mobile shore power battery barge designed for a 1,730 TEU containership in the Port of Rotterdam. An average power demand of 329 kW and a peak demand of 1 MW is assumed. This results in the requirement of two 20-ft containerized batteries integrated into a Low Voltage Shore Connection (LVSC) system. Estimated savings for the ship reach €500 per 24-hour period, primarily due to reduced FuelEU compliance costs, which could exceed €600,000 over 10 years.
Wat is de gemiddelde walstroomvraag van een containerschip?
Accurate estimates of containership power demand are becoming increasingly critical due to stringent regulations, such as FuelEU Maritime, in combination with technical complexities. Ship power demand varies significantly depending on size, onboard equipment installed, and operational profile. These uncertainties places considerable pressure on terminal owners, port authorities, and developers to design and implement shore power infrastructure. This blog aims to provide guidance on this issue.
Overzicht van walstroomstekkers en -aansluitingen – IEC/IEEE 80005
IEC/IEEE 80005 is the main standard for shore power. This standard categorically divides shore power plugs and sockets into low voltage shore connection systems (LVSC < 1 MVA) and high voltage shore connection systems (HVSC > 1 MVA). LVSC systems are governed by IEC/IEEE 80005-3 for operability and IEC 60309-5 for dimensions. HVSC systems are governed by IEC/IEEE 80005-1 for operability and IEC 62613-2 for dimensions.
BAM Amsterdam Cruise Terminal with Dick and Rick
On May 10th, Port of Amsterdam awarded the contract for the realization of shore power at Cruise Port Amsterdam (CPA) to Powercon A/S and with BAM as subcontractor. Dick van Veen and Rick van Akkeren - BAM Business Unit Heavy Duty Charging - explain in detail about the project and the challenges that they are facing. Building the infrastructure that can host large cruise vessels and support the heavy electrical equipment is therefore a daunting task, all of which is discussed in this video.
EOPSA - Digital 4 Port Decarbonisation met GE
Watch this lunch and learn by EOPSA together with General Electric, in which we discuss the onshore and vessel aspects of shore power, including microgrids and using the Decarbonizer to determine the costs for shore power for your vessel.
Shore-Link met Levan Chikviladze
Ports are the start and end of every vessel’s journey. Because of this, onshore power supply undeniably plays a big part of the decarbonization of the maritime industry. Creating a network of onshore power supply in ports around the world is a tremendous but necessary task. One of the companies providing the technology for this transition is ShoreLink. Watch this lunch and learn by Shorelink, presented by Levan Chikviladze, to learn more.
Shore Power in de haven van Rotterdam
How a single project from Heerema - made possible by Sustainable Ships - kicked shore power developments in Rotterdam into high gear and led towards the Rotterdam Shore Power Strategy.
Walstroom door Heerema
This is a story about how the shore power connection for Heerema in the Port of Rotterdam was realized from idea to reality. It is told from the perspective of Heerema, but could not be realized without help from Eneco, Siemens, Port of Rotterdam, the City Council of Rotterdam and InnovationQuarter. This story portrays the power of open collaboration for a sustainable future, and shows what can be achieved when working together on a common cause.
