Description

In episode 7, our panel members Chris Poyner from ABB, Hafsa Shafiq from PTR, and Jan Keenan from Eneco explore the multifaceted aspects of port electrification. The industry experts delve into the concept of “port as energy hubs,” elucidating how these ports can transform into dynamic hubs and can actively contribute to lower carbon emissions through the electrification of port equipment such as shore-to-ship power and vessel charging systems. Because of rising energy needs, other associated technologies are also discussed in the podcast such as hydrogen and energy storage. Furthermore, the roles of utilities, grid operators, energy producers, vessels, and terminal operators are examined for the successful implementation of sustainable energy projects. Join us with the moderator Claire Biau from EOPSA (European Onshore Power Supply Association), our channel partner on this enlightening journey as we uncover the path toward a greener, more sustainable future for ports.
