Abstract


In our days electrical energy demand for marine ports in order to cooperate climate change related with zero emissions exhaust gases for the ships has been increased. In order to adapt the situation for the marine port and not use the main grid powered by traditional power stations using fossil fuels, the insertion of renewable energy sources is recommended. The situation created many problems due to variable energy output of renewables and storage system required to be integrated. The authors of this paper propose a decision support framework for the identification and evaluation of the various renewable energy sources and their integration into

marine port grid using the Analytic Hierarchy Process and taking into account a number of criteria, as well as, the energy requirements of port activities (i.e.: cold ironing, electrical moving assets, electrical handling devices, etc.). The Kaliningrad sea fishery port (Russia) is used as a case study. The use of hydrogen and hi- pressure as a storage of excessive energy is also to be considered. The proposed framework will advise decision-makers and port stakeholders on choosing the most suitable renewable energy source in the context of a zero-emission port
