“…Energy management systems (EMS) in ships send the signal to the particular component through the communication network after determining the optimal outputs for generators and batteries [50]. P. Xie et al [90] categorized the PMS and EMS of shipboard power systems into rule-based and optimization-based techniques, where rule-based techniques are highly dependent on human expertise, preconfigured strategies, and priorities. Meanwhile, optimization-based techniques are becoming more trendy as they are capable in providing a better solution by using analytical strategies or numerical optimization algorithms [91].…”

Seaports are well known as the medium that has evolved into the central link between sea and land for complex marine activities. The growth in maritime logistics particularly necessitates a large volume of energy supply in order to maintain the operation of sea trade, resulting in an imbalance between generation and demand sides. Future projections for three major concerns show an increase in load demand, cost of operation, and environmental issues. In order to overcome these problems, integrating microgrids as an innovative technology in the seaport power system appears to be a vital strategy. It is believed that microgrids enhance seaport operation by providing sustainable, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective energy. Although microgrids are well established and widely used in a variety of operations on land, their incorporation into the seaport is still limited. The involvement of a variety of heavy loads such as all-electric ships, cranes, cold ironing, and buildings infrastructure renders it a complicated arrangement task in several aspects, which necessitates further research and leaves space for improvement. In this paper, an overview of the seaport microgrids in terms of their concepts and operation management is presented. It provides the perspectives for integrating the microgrid concept into a seaport from both shore side and seaside as a smart initiative for the green port’s vision. Future research directions are discussed towards the development of a more efficient marine power system.

“…Considering this situation, ensuring enough an availability of power supply is significant to prevent disturbance in maritime power system. P.Xie et al [12] in their optimization research identify three common objectives and seven constraints at seaport sector, which are simplified in Table 1. From the selected objectives and constraints, an algorithm is developed and simulated to see the optimization result.…”

“…The complexity of multiple power resources coordination, varying electrical loads, fluctuation in economical variables, and assessing the environmental impact require the use of an EMS in both design and planning phases. EMS focuses on the use and preparation of energy sources over a specific time frame and is often combined with future forecasting and projection systems [12]. It is strongly related with both of the energy efficiency as well as cost saving.…”

Microgrid is one of the promising green transition technologies that will provide enormous benefit to the seaport, as a solution to the major concerns in this sector, namely energy crisis, economical and environmental pollution. However, finest design of the microgrid is a challenging task considering different objectives, constraints and uncertainties involved. To ensure the optimal operation of the system, determining the right configuration framework and size for each component in the seaport microgrid at the minimum cost is a vital decision at the design stage. This paper aims to design a hybrid system of seaport microgrid with optimally sized component .The selected case study is the Port of Aalborg, Denmark. The proposed grid-connected structure consists of renewable energy sources (photovoltaic system and wind turbines), an energy storage system and cold ironing as seaport’ loads. The architecture is then optimized by utilizing HOMER to meet the maximum load demand by considering a few parameters such as solar global horizontal irradiance, temperature and wind resources. Then, the best configuration framework is analyzed in terms of economic feasibility, energy reliability and environmental impact.
