Sustainable Ships performed a techno-economic feasibility study for the Province of South-Holland and InnovationQuarter on offshore charging of tankers at the anchorage at Scheveningen. As part of the job, a purpose-build tool for interactive parametric design to create insights for decision-making. The study determined that offshore charging of tankers is technically and economically feasible.

Sustainable Ships provided Port of Rotterdam with a detailed Shore Power report, a customized techno-economic feasibility study that estimates costs and provides an overview of the technical challenges, standards and retrofit options required to accomodate shore power on board a vessel. The report is used to help shipowners gain quick insights into the conversion for shore power, including estimated cost and technical requirements for conversion.

Sustainable Ships provided Damen Shipyards with a customized report that provides an overview of upcoming rules and regulations with regards to sustainability. The project focused on interpreting rules such as EEXI and CII, calculate costs for EU ETS, and investigated beyond regulatory bodies into energy majors’ ambitions, ports and shipping companies. The report is used as a basis for long-term decision-making with regards to sustainability tailored to Damen’s portfolio.

One of our crew members realized the largest shore power connection in Rotterdam - 20MW - from inception, to design, up to project management and execution.
