Physical Mock-up of Shore Power System with Integrated Energy Storage; MAGPIE Deliverable report D3.15
report
The MAGPIE R&D project is working towards the European Green Port of the Future, which includes energy supply chains, such as shore power. The shore power peak shaving demonstrator (Demo 3) sets out to increase utilization of an existing shore power hub facility in the Port of Rotterdam, aiming to reduce the costs and greenhouse gas emissions. To support this demo, the technical viability was demonstrated of peak-shaving of the electricity demand of the crane vessel Thialf of Heerema Marine Contractors (HMC) when connected to shore power, by means of an onboard Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
The use-case of this pilot also included balancing of the demand (behind-the-meter) with renewable electricity produced by a local wind farm. For this use-case peak-shaving was first simulated, based on measured vessel data provided by HMC and historic weather data, and then tested in a down-scaled physical mock up at the SWITCH field lab in Lelystad, The Netherlands. Tests were conducted with and without considering renewable generation, with different limits for the grid demand.
