Financing of 40-foot Mobile Energy Storage Containers for Port Terminals

What is a 40ft containerized battery energy storage system?

AZE''s 40Ft containerized battery energy storage system comes in scalable containerized modules ranging from tens of kWh to MWh energy capacities. The solutions offers plug-and-play features that allow rapid installation at low installation costs.

Why is energy storage a critical port function?

Ensuring availability of these electrical resources to meet loads which are intermittent and uncertain is becoming a critical port function. It requires investment in multi-vector energy supply chains, energy storage in ports and their associated energy management systems.

How can ports reduce energy costs?

ESSOP has explored two ways in which ports can minimize their energy costs by using energy storage: • Optimising how to use PV solar generation to offset grid electricity. The wholesale price of energy varies every half-hour, and on a time-of-day tariff this variation is passed onto users.

What funding is available for port terminal infrastructure development?

There are essentially five major sources of funding and finance available for port terminal infrastructure development: Debt. It can comprise conventional loans, debentures (loan certificates), bonds, and convertible preference shares.
