OPS replaces auxiliary engines at berth When berthed, ships require electricity to support activities like loading, unloading, heating and lighting and other onboard activities. Today, this power is generally provided by auxiliary engines that emit carbon dioxide (CO2) and air pollutants, affecting local air quality and ultimately the health of both port workers and nearby residents. The same holds for noise nuisance. As an alternative to onboard power generation, vessels can be hooked up to an onshore power supply, i.e. connected to the local electricity grid. In this way ships’ operations can proceed uninterrupted, while eliminating negative side‐effects.

impact of seagoing vessels in ports.
OPS replaces auxiliary engines at berth
When berthed, ships require electricity to
support activities like loading, unloading,
heating and lighting and other onboard
activities.
Today, this power is generally provided by
auxiliary engines that emit carbon dioxide
(CO2) and air pollutants, affecting local air
quality and ultimately the health of both
port workers and nearby residents. The
same holds for noise nuisance.
As an alternative to onboard power
generation, vessels can be hooked up to an
onshore power supply, i.e. connected to the
local electricity grid. In this way ships’
operations can proceed uninterrupted,
while eliminating negative side‐effects.
