Shore Power Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028
Global shore power market is expected to grow at a robust pace during the forecast period, 2024-2028 due to the government's favorable rules and regulations for reducing greenhouse gas emissions, low-frequency noise, and emissions at ports. Additionally, the rise of cruise liners in the maritime sector is projected to offer market participants a chance to expand.
Shore power is the process of offering electrical power from the shore to a vessel at dock, thereby admitting the supporting engines to be turned off. By plugging in and shutting off these engines, shore power effectively reduces diesel emissions and other air pollutants that would otherwise come from continuing the vessel’s on-board supporting engines.
Increasing Demand for Decrease in Low-Frequency Noise and Emissions at Ports
Ships that are parked or dry-docked can use marine power to use shore power to run essential equipment like lighting, ventilation, cargo pumps, communications, and other on-board electrical systems while turning down auxiliary engines. It enables the crew to preserve the vessel's diesel engine while breathing and reduces low-frequency noise and vibration. Companies that ship goods must cut expenses and emissions. Additionally, it is a short-term solution that is quicker and less expensive that enables shipping businesses to fulfil emissions requirements. As a result, the market is anticipated to be driven by the power supply's positive qualities described above. The risk of ships hitting whales and underwater noise are two further environmental effects of shipping that are impacted by speed optimization and decrease.
Significant attempts have been made to develop underwater noise measurement standards, particularly ISO 17208, to establish a uniform metric for underwater noise emitted by merchant ships. During sea trials, all relevant factors were considered, including site selection, environmental factors, measurement device requirements, test protocols, and analysis and interpretation of measurement data. The Classification Society regulations include additional requirements, and ISO standards are now being created expressly for shallow water sea trial surveys. Currently, unique sea tests are used to determine whether it satisfies the requirements of classification societies for underwater noise. The evaluation of noise reduction strategies during the underwater design phase is aided by analytical techniques and tools for forecasting radiated noise underwater. Consequently, shore power systems assist marine enterprises in reducing noise and achieving emissions goals.
The above factors are expected to boost the global shore power market.
Favorable Government Rules and Regulations for Lowering Greenhouse Gases Emission is driving the growth of Global Shore Power Market
Shore power helps in lowering greenhouse gases emission, emitted by supporting diesel engines while docked. Therefore, governments are concentrating on funding this technology on a worldwide scale as a result. For instance, the European Commission has mandated that all European ports have a shore connection system. In addition, the Environmental Ship Index developed by the World Ports Climate Initiative rates ships according to the quantity of nitrogen oxides, Sulphur oxides, and carbon dioxide they produce. The greener the ship, the lesser the fees, as ports are increasingly utilizing ESI to determine port fees.
Shore power would become a more attractive alternative as fuel prices rise and the need that ships to utilize low-sulfur, high-grade marine fuels become a global standard. The potential to put shore power on ships has gained new momentum as a result of a motion made by the European Parliament to demand a restriction on greenhouse gas emissions from berthing ships. Despite the fact that cold ironing technology is advanced, market expansion is facilitated by EU initiatives and general efforts to enhance the environment near important ports. As a result, the market expansion during the projection period is likely to be driven by this favorable government policy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
High Installation and Maintenance Costs are Expected to Hinder the Growth of Global Shore Power Market
On-board frequency conversion and the cost of supplying the jetty with high-voltage electricity are major factors responsible for the high installation cost of this technology. Additionally, the weight of this equipment makes transportation challenging, reduces overall flexibility, and raises maintenance expenses. Higher installation and maintenance expenses as a result limit market expansion.
During the forecast period, the global pandemic and the coronavirus outbreak have become major obstacles and market uncertainties in the maritime shipping industry. This would have a negative impact on the transportation sector. As a result, the COVID-19 situation has hampered maritime shipping, which would have an impact on the market for several years.
Shore power systems have fixed investment expenditures as well as ongoing operating expenses. Shoreside and shipside fixed investments include the installation of high-voltage power, transformers, switchboards, control panels, cable reel systems, electrical distribution systems, and frequency converters. Frequency converter equipment and quayside high-voltage power supply make up the two major costs connected with shoreside infrastructure, together making up nearly half of the overall fixed expenditure. Depending on the kind and size of the vessel as well as if an on-board transformer is required, the cost of shipside modifications might range from USD 0.3 million to USD 2 million. Retrofit and new-build projects differ significantly from one another in terms of cost, with retrofits frequently costing up to twice as much as incremental new-build investments. The main operational costs are taxes and the cost of power, both of which are localized. Although some electricity suppliers levy connection fees, several nations, including Sweden, lower taxes on electricity consumed by shore power systems.
Thus, the above factors are expected to cause hindrance to the growth of global shore power market.
