Shore-side electricity for ships!

EcoPorts Conference, Genoa, 14-15 December 2006 Session 6, Round 2, 14th December, 16,30 to 18,00. Susann Dutt, Port of Göteborg, [email protected], www.portgot.se Shore-side electricity for ships

The presentation:

• What is the problem? • What is shore-side electricity? • Who are offering it today? • Environmental benefits & constraints • Costs for energy generation • General comments & conclusions Steady growth in transport volumes

Decoupling - breaking the connection between the environmentally negative impacts from transport logistics and economic growth looks difficult to achieve! One of the problems!

Emission of SOx 1990-2030 (ktons) Emission of NOx 1990-2030 (ktons) Shore-side electricity for ships Electrical power needed for all functions on board is supplied from land, no auxiliary engine is used during port stop Connection principles in Göteborg

• The technology for shore-side electricity is available at a reasonable cost • The external costs are very high • There is a lot going on worldwide! • The standardization process has started • EU and ESPO recommend the promotion of shore-side electricity • 2010 shore-side electricity will be an alternative to 0,1% sulphur at berth • Collaboration and clear economic incentives need to be further encouraged

Thank you for your attention!

• First equipment for high voltage was installed in year 2000 • No functional problems at all • No extra personnel • Noise reduction appreciated by the personnel on board and in the port • No restrictions when bunkering
