Korean ports to install power supply for ships
Four Korean port authorities have agreed to introduce a power supply system for ships at berth to reduce air pollution, a measure already in practice in advanced countries like the U.S. Authorities in Incheon, Busan, Ulsan and Yeosu Gwangyang will install “alternative maritime power” (AMP), at their wharves, where ships can connect power plugs and run on-board systems on electricity. This will enable ships to conserve fuel and reduce engine noise pollution. Until now, ships have had to burn fuels to run generators to stay operative, producing air pollutants like carbon dioxide, fine dust, nitrogen oxides and sulfide oxides. At a meeting at Incheon Port Authority on Jun 22, participants agreed to work on an electricity rate standard, investment budget, and estimated operation costs to develop the system. http://www.hellenicshippingnews.com/korean-ports-to-install-power-supply-for-ships/
Incheon Port Aims to Turn into Logistics Hub in West Sea
