Ports Plugging In: From Ground Vehicles To Ocean Shipping
Ports around the world face an enormous sustainability challenge. Currently responsible for approximately 3% of global carbon emissions, maritime operations and related logistics are under intense scrutiny to reduce their environmental impact. The 30-year roadmap outlined in my port electrification series provides a detailed, phased strategy to transition ports fully … [continued]

30 Years Later: The Port That Turned Batteries, Data, and Wind into New Profit
By the time a port reaches the twenty-year mark on a thirty-year decarbonization roadmap the engineering problems are largely solved and the hard infrastructure is mostly in place; what remains is equal parts disciplined execution, digital finesse and opportunistic scaling. This logical progression builds upon the successful groundwork established in the … [continued]
