ABB’s containerized energy storage solution is a complete, self-contained battery solution for a large-scale marine energy storage. The batteries and all control, interface, and auxiliary equipment are delivered in a single shipping container for simple installation on board any vessel. How does containerized energy storage work?
The maritime energy storage system stores energy when demand is low, and delivers it back when demand increases, enhancing the performance of the vessel’s power plant. The flow of energy is controlled by ABB’s dynamic Energy Storage Control System.
The energy supply for port operations can be from fossil fuels, clean fuels including renewable sources. The energy can also be obtained from the grid in the form of electricity or it can be generated within the port. In this section, renewable energy and other clean fuels are assessed as the energy supply for ports. 4.2.1. Renewable energy
Energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors [66, 67], batteries and flywheels [62, 69, 70], are used to store the potential energy and consume the stored energy in hoisting and traveling. Flywheel installment with an undersized diesel-generator is analyzed for an RTG, and fuel savings are expected to reach 35% .
The increasing energy demand results in higher energy costs, pollutants and GHG emissions. Energy costs can be a significant overhead for ports and terminals, and reducing these costs might bring valuable cost reductions . Reduction of emissions directly contributes to the sustainability and green perspective of ports .
Results show that 90 containers can be loaded with an approximate energy consumption of 65 kWh . The integrated scheduling of QCs, YTs and YCs is shown to achieve significant energy savings for an acceptable level of lateness [30, 31].
