OPS Workshop

The IMO’s GreenVoyage2050 project has unveiled a workshop package centered on Onshore Power Supply (OPS), designed specifically for port stakeholders.

This resource details the implementation of OPS in ports, aiming to curb ship emissions, aligning with IMO resolution MEPC.366(79) objectives that advocate collaborative efforts between port and shipping sectors to diminish greenhouse gas emissions from vessels.

Developed in partnership with the International Association of Ports and Harbors (IAPH), this package serves as a comprehensive guide for OPS utilization.

OPS Overview

The OPS workshop package provides port stakeholders, including port authorities, terminals, with a basic understanding of the concept of OPS and key considerations to support the implementation of OPS as an emission reduction opportunity in port. Core aspects covered in the OPS workshop package include:
  • How ports can explore OPS, and key issues to be considered.
  • Common drivers and influencing factors that affect the viability of OPS as an emissions reduction strategy.
  • Current OPS use globally, and case study examples of OPS implementation around the world.
  • Types of analyses required to assess feasibility and potential usage, e.g. fleet and port call analyses, grid analysis and the importance of grid characteristics, energy consumption and OPS emissions analysis
