Technical FAQs 4

Is solar energy a viable option for shipping & ports?

Solar energy is a key component of sustainable shipping and ports. Its benefits, such as reduced carbon emissions, cost savings, and increased energy independence, make it an attractive option for the industry.

Why should ports use solar energy?

Lastly, solar energy provides increased energy independence and resilience. Ports and ships equipped with solar power systems have a more reliable and stable energy supply, ensuring uninterrupted operations. Solar energy can be seamlessly integrated into various aspects of port infrastructure.

How can shipping companies adopt solar energy?

The adoption of solar energy requires collaboration between shipping companies, port authorities, and renewable energy providers. By working together, these stakeholders can develop and implement sustainable energy solutions tailored to their specific needs. Government incentives and policies play a crucial role in promoting solar energy adoption.

How can ports reduce energy costs?

ESSOP has explored two ways in which ports can minimize their energy costs by using energy storage: • Optimising how to use PV solar generation to offset grid electricity. The wholesale price of energy varies every half-hour, and on a time-of-day tariff this variation is passed onto users.
