Advances in clean energy technology, such as microgrids and batteries, are enabling electrification of port infrastructure and charging of heavy-duty vehicles traditionally considered hard to electrify. PNNLMaritime ports, bustling hubs of global trade, are emerging as the new frontier for electrification.
The handbook covers the entire spectrum of electrification technologies, including shore power systems, energy storage, renewable energy, and charging infrastructure, along with various end uses, like buildings, refrigeration, and cargo handling. The handbook emphasizes the critical evaluation and planning phase of port electrification projects, as well as benefits and challenges to consider during these phases, including economic feasibility, resilience impacts, and environmental justice.
The handbook is a product of extensive collaboration with seven guiding ports , along with industry groups like Washington Maritime Blue, and with contributions from Sandia National Laboratories.Ports are also major hubs of economic activity, handling the import and export of goods, and are often associated with high levels of pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, which can disproportionally affect communities in proximity.
