This document discusses reducing port emissions through a holistic approach that considers more than just engine technologies. It recommends that operators provide input on new technologies now and consider operational improvements like route planning software, better asset utilization, reducing transit speeds and distances, and harbor-wide coordination. Shoreside advancements like quick connect systems for shore power connections could allow ships to use lower-cost grid power instead of onboard diesel generation. Alternative energy sources like LNG and propulsion solutions like battery-electric hybrids also show potential but face challenges around installation costs, fuel storage and supply, and regulations. An integrated grid connection solution combining automated mooring, shore power hookup, and high voltage power delivery could significantly reduce emissions and costs.
