Ports Energy and Carbon Savings

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG V-A France - Belgium - The Netherlands - United Kingdom (Les Deux Mers / Two seas / Twee Zeeën)

Date of latest update: 2024-12-17

Description

Description (EN):

Developing, testing and validating various methods, tools and concepts and realising and demonstrating proven and innovative applications for energy efficiency, specific coast-related renewable energy sources and energy storage in such a way that small and medium-sized ports will adopt and use these technologies much more, will start-up energycooperations with all local stakeholders (in and outside ports) and are able to reduce their carbon emissions significantly.

Achievements (EN):

In this third year, due to COVID-19, PECS has made some, but not much progress in the achievement of outputs, communication (newsletters, social media, press releases, publications and presentations at events) and cross border cooperation. All partners have submitted claims and achieved a total spending € 6.8 mio (approx. 84% of total budget). The little underspending is mainly due to COVID-19 and delays in the realisation of three pilots (O13-IndaChlor, O11-Port of Ostend and O8-Hellevoetsluis). In the first and third case problems with permits are the main cause, but for O13 this has been solved and for O8 partly. In the second case there were problems with design and tendering, but these are solved now. So the project will spend the whole (or almost) budget by the end of the project in 2021. Although the project is behind schedule, most outputs are completed or almost completed. In WP1 (tools and methods), 4 of the 5 outputs are ready, and for the last one, O4, a draft version is ready. In WP2, one output (O6-overall verification study) has been completed and the second one (O7-overall testing and monitoring report) is half way and will be completed in March. Also 6 out of 8 pilots are ready: Wind turbine in Ostend, Linkspan in Portsmouth, Floating Solar panels in Hellevoetsluis, LEM-Platform in OD IJmond The Small wind turbines in Hellevoetsluis and the Energy pontoon of BPS. The first 4 are also tested and monitored, the last 2 are now being tested. The 2 other pilots (O11 and O13) have some delays and will be completed in 2021 (at the latest in June). Regarding specific objectives and results good results can been reported for 3 pilots, only the Medium sized wind turbine has less results than expected. For the tools/methods which are ready we don’t yet know how much they are used by others. This will be investigated by a survey which will be executed in January-March 2021. Cross-border cooperation proceeds well. Knowledge partners have collaborated on development of methods and port partners contributed by testing’s. In the other way around, knowledge partners have supported pilot partners with their investments (monitoring). Collaboration is also good with regard to management and communication.

Delivered Outputs (EN):

The main outputs of the PECS project are: - A method for energy audit in SMS-ports; - A method to assess potentials of renewable energy sources in SMS-ports; - A method to identify energy saving options in SMS-ports; - A Decision-making tool to select the best mix of low carbon options; - An energy cooperation structure for SMS-ports; - A verification feasibility study for the implementation of 9 different kind of low carbon technologies in ports; - A series of 8 tests and monitoring of implemented low carbon technologies; - A Small-scale investment in 5 small wind turbines in the municipal ports of Hellevoetsluis; - An investment in IT-systems and technologies for development of a LEM-platform that enables flexible renewable energy distribution in the port of IJmond; - A small-scale investment in an innovative medium sized wind turbine in the maritime environment of the port of Ostende; - A small-scale investment in smart pontoons in the port of Ostende; - An investment in energy saving properties of a new linkspan at Portsmouth International Port; - An investment in a turbine electricity producing system to make electricity from waste steam in the IndaChlor factory in the Port of Dunkirk; - A small-scale investment in a prototype of energy production and storage pontoon; - A small-scale investment in 100 solar panels in the Helius port of Hellevoetsluis.
