Integration between Photovoltaic Arrays, Port Energy Requirements, and Pilot Boats to Achieve Net Zero Emission: A Case Study of the Port of Lembar

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Ports are essential for global distribution but also contribute to carbon emissions. However, integrating renewable energy in port electrification could help mitigate their carbon footprint. This study employs EnergyPLAN software and proposes an analysis of integrating a photovoltaic array at the Port of Lembar. It involves analysing the power requirements of the port, including pilot boat services, and assessing the power generation potential of the photovoltaic array. The analysis concludes that this integration can meet the port’s electricity demands with a Critical Excess Energy Production value of 1 kW, resulting in an annual reduction of CO2 emissions by 33.04 tons.
