          Germany Promotes Shore-Based Power to Cut Emissions in Ports

          Germany Promotes Shore-Based Power to Cut Emissions in Ports
          Share this

          The
          German government is launching a set of measures to promote shore-generated
          power in an effort to make the country’s ports cleaner.

          Instead
          of burning fossil fuels to generate shipboard electric power, vessels in
          Germany’s ports will be using renewable shore-based energy in the future.
          Government
          representatives of several regions in Germany met in Kiel on October 10 and
          signed a memorandum of understanding listing the conditions for the use of
          shore-generated power to provide cleaner air in port cities.
          “With
          these measures, we are making a significant contribution towards cleaner air
          and a reduction of CO2 and noise in port cities along the North Sea and Baltic
          coasts. We are also giving ports and shipowners planning certainty for
          expanding facilities and refitting ships,” Peter Altmeier, Federal Minister for
          Economic Affairs and Energy, commented.
          “Shore-based
          power supply as an alternative to operating shipboard diesels represents a
          tangible contribution towards cleaner air and protecting the climate. That
          applies to the port in Kiel and all other port cities on the North Sea and
          Baltic,” Daniel Günther, Minister-President for Land Schleswig-Holstein, said.
          “The
          memorandum is an initial, important step towards improving the commercial
          viability of shore-based power. The paper includes the reduction of the EU levy
          to 20 percent favoured by Schleswig-Holstein. By mid-2020 we should have
          initiated the essential legal steps. I am expecting rapid implementation of
          what we have agreed.”
          The
          use of shore-based power derived from renewable energy sources can
          substantially reduce emissions from ships during lay times in German seaports.
          However, since the costs are too high compared to those for power supply from
          the conventional sources, there is currently barely any demand for it from
          shipowners.
          Among
          other things, the package of measures provides for rulings that make a start on
          reducing levies, as well as special network charges, for cruise liners, ferries
          and containerships. Compared to inland shipping, seagoing ships have to reckon
          with distinctly higher costs, since they consume considerably more electricity
          during longer port lay times. They can currently only secure supply on the
          basis of extremely unfavorable consumer profiles.
          At
          the same time, a program of subsidies totaling EUR 140 million (about USD 155
          million) should be in place from 2020 to assist states and ports in expanding
          essential port infrastructure.

          Hamburg,
          Kiel and Rostock seaports are already planning far-reaching expansion. In May
          this year, Kiel inaugurated its first shore-based power supply plant for ships
          that would enable the port to supply more than half of ships berthing in the
          port.
          As
          explained, the newly announced measures should enable such units to be operated
          on a commercial basis.
          In
          separate statements, German cruise companies TUI Cruises and AIDA Cruises
          welcomed the latest governmental incentive scheme for shore-generated power. The
          program is said to be in line with strategies of both cruise lines which are
          aimed at reducing emissions in cruising.

          signed a memorandum of understanding listing the conditions for the use of
          shore-generated power to provide cleaner air in port cities.
          “With
          these measures, we are making a significant contribution towards cleaner air
          and a reduction of CO2 and noise in port cities along the North Sea and Baltic
          coasts. We are also giving ports and shipowners planning certainty for
          expanding facilities and refitting ships,” Peter Altmeier, Federal Minister for
          Economic Affairs and Energy, commented.
          “Shore-based
          power supply as an alternative to operating shipboard diesels represents a
          tangible contribution towards cleaner air and protecting the climate. That
          applies to the port in Kiel and all other port cities on the North Sea and
          Baltic,” Daniel Günther, Minister-President for Land Schleswig-Holstein, said.
          “The
          memorandum is an initial, important step towards improving the commercial
          viability of shore-based power. The paper includes the reduction of the EU levy
          to 20 percent favoured by Schleswig-Holstein. By mid-2020 we should have
          initiated the essential legal steps. I am expecting rapid implementation of
          what we have agreed.”
          The
          use of shore-based power derived from renewable energy sources can
          substantially reduce emissions from ships during lay times in German seaports.
          However, since the costs are too high compared to those for power supply from
          the conventional sources, there is currently barely any demand for it from
          shipowners.
          Among
          other things, the package of measures provides for rulings that make a start on
          reducing levies, as well as special network charges, for cruise liners, ferries
          and containerships. Compared to inland shipping, seagoing ships have to reckon
          with distinctly higher costs, since they consume considerably more electricity
          during longer port lay times. They can currently only secure supply on the
          basis of extremely unfavorable consumer profiles.
          At
          the same time, a program of subsidies totaling EUR 140 million (about USD 155
          million) should be in place from 2020 to assist states and ports in expanding
          essential port infrastructure.

          Hamburg,
          Kiel and Rostock seaports are already planning far-reaching expansion. In May
          this year, Kiel inaugurated its first shore-based power supply plant for ships
          that would enable the port to supply more than half of ships berthing in the
          port.
          As
          explained, the newly announced measures should enable such units to be operated
          on a commercial basis.
          In
          separate statements, German cruise companies TUI Cruises and AIDA Cruises
          welcomed the latest governmental incentive scheme for shore-generated power. The
          program is said to be in line with strategies of both cruise lines which are
          aimed at reducing emissions in cruising.
