Ports are critical hubs in the global supply chain, yet they face mounting challenges in achieving carbon neutrality. Port Integrated Multi-Energy Systems (PIMESs) offer a comprehensive solution by integrating renewable energy sources such as wind, photovoltaic (PV), hydrogen, and energy storage with traditional energy systems. This study examines the implementation of a real-word PIMES, showcasing its effectiveness in reducin...

The air-supported membrane coal shed is widely used in bulk cargo terminals. It not only effectively protects goods from adverse weather conditions but also helps reduce coal dust and harmful gas emissions, promoting the green and sustainable development of ports. However, in practical engineering, the design parameters of the coal shed are often based on experience, making it difficult to accurately assess the quality of the...

In the context of global carbon neutrality, ports face significant electricity demand for cargo handling and pressure to reduce carbon emissions. The abundant wind energy resources in port areas make wind power highly promising for port applications. The optimal selection of site and turbine types for wind power systems can effectively reduce emissions in ports, achieving sustainability and improving economic benefits. The pra...

Ports in China are facing significant pressure to reduce carbon emissions in alignment with carbon peak and carbon neutrality goals. Onshore power supply (OPS) is regarded as a promising approach to accomplish these targets, necessitating a thorough evaluation of its impact for port authorities to make informed decisions regarding its adoption. This research focuses on Ningbo Zhoushan Port, the largest port globally, as a case...

Wind energy is an effective way to reduce emissions in ports. However, port wind power generation exhibits strong intermittency and randomness. Predicting port wind speed enables timely scheduling of port operations and improves wind energy utilization efficiency. To achieve high accuracy and rapid prediction of port wind speed, this paper proposes a wind speed prediction model based on the Sparrow Search Algorithm (SSA) optim...
