A complex port energy challenge

Autonomous ports are facing growing energy needs: electrification of ships at berth, port facilities, logistics, etc. Our mission? To design a renewable energy solution that provides a 30% coverage rate for energy consumed, with an 80% self-consumption rate.

In-depth analysis: understand before acting

Our energy audit began with a detailed analysis of consumption data over 12 months. On-site measurements revealed significant variations depending on the season and the type of ships accommodated:

Seasonal profiles: summer peaks linked to tourism, constant needs for logistics
Consumption of ships at berth: identification of power supply needs
Infrastructure and administrative buildings

This analysis phase was crucial to correctly size the facilities and ensure optimal self-consumption.

Optimal energy mix: wind + solar + batteries

We studied several scenarios before identifying a sustainable solution: wind-solar mix and/or storage.

Why does this mix work? Small-scale commercial wind turbines: harnessing constant offshore winds and photovoltaic panels: seasonal complementarity with wind power.

Result: 50% coverage in green energy production with 90% self-consumption, exceeding initial objectives!

Landscape integration

3D simulations made it possible to visualize the impact of the installations from different perspectives. The small-scale wind turbines blend naturally into the industrial port landscape while affirming the infrastructure’s ecological commitment.

Public acceptability

A public consultation process was successfully conducted: presentations to local residents, participatory workshops, and transparent communication on the environmental benefits.

Safety and Compliance

All port safety standards were met: equipment certification, fire protection, environmental impact studies, and administrative authorizations.

Recyclability: Thinking about the complete life cycle

The selected equipment demonstrates excellent environmental performance:

Wind turbines: 90% of recyclable components (steel, copper, aluminum)
Solar panels: 95% of materials recycled

Tangible benefits

Economic

30% reduction in annual energy bills
Protection against price volatility

Environmental

450 tons of CO2 reduction per year
Contribution to the regional energy transition
Exemplary for other maritime infrastructures

Expertise applicable to all sectors

This methodology is perfectly suited to other areas:

Agriculture: agricultural wind power for farms, cooperatives, irrigation
SMEs and industries: energy cost reduction, CSR compliance
Public authorities: energy autonomy for public buildings
