In addition 2 non-med ports were analysed due to their relevant influence in the Mediterrean area: Sines (Portugal) and Tanger Med (Morocco).
In total 23 Criteria (and 68 KPIs) were defined for the assessment, 8 (16 KPIs) of them focussed on the energy performance of the selected ports:
1.Total consumption of energy
2.Energy consumption by containers
3.Energy consumption by internal fleets
4.Energy consumption by offices
5.Energy consumption by lighting
6.Energy consumption by terminals equipment for movement of containers
7.Use of renewables
8.Energy Management
Use of renewables KPIs
1. % heating fuels from renewable resources managed by the port authority
2. % heating fuels from renewable resources managed by terminal operators
3. % energy from renewable resources managed by port authority
4. % energy from renewable resources managed by terminal operators.
But despite its potential this sector is facing several challenges which need to
be faced:
⇨Technology costs are high and access to finance is difficult;
⇨There are substantial infrastructure barriers, such as grid connection issues
or access to adequate port facilities and specialized vessels;
⇨There are administrative barriers such as complex licensing and consenting
procedures, which can delay projects and raise costs;
⇨There are environmental issues to be faced, including the need for more
research and better information on environmental impacts.
Political incentives towards the use of renewable
energies.
Developing clusters and poles to push forward innovation
and avoid fragmentation.
Improving access to risk capital or loans for startup SMEs;
and improving intellectual property management.
Increasing investments in demonstration projects
(commercial feasibility); and large public-private partnership
initiatives to gather the necessary critical mass.
Promoting large PPP initiatives to gather the necessary
critical mass
Addressing legal and administrative hurdles.
Promoting the coordination and communication among
the different actors and operators within the port area.
Better and improved access to consumption and energy
performance data and information (both, the Port and its
operators).
Definition of energy efficiency and performance indicators.
Incentives towards the adoption of energy management
standards (ISO 50000).
Embracing the smart grid concept (EFFICIENCY &
SUSTAINABILITY): promoting ports integration in the Smart
Grid (generation and consumption).
Encouraging ports as potential energy suppliers,
allowing them to sell its energy surplus in the grid (price
policy regulation required).
Promoting the use of green vehicles inside the port
area.
Development of R&D and technology projects (RIS3,
ESI, H2020…)
Promoting (and supporting) the upgrading of ports
facilities in order to facilitate the production,
manufacturing and distribution of technology components
and devices within the port area (thus encouraging the
development and establishment of these companies in
the port area).
