Back to basics: What is a Smart Port?
/in #DidYouKnow, DidYouKnow - Port Operations, DidYouKnow-MOST, Educational Approach, Issue 46 | Spring 2023, Maritime TransportThe inclusion of the word “smart” in the name implies the capabilities of the port and the integrated workflow (Marine Insight). So what is it exactly? A smart port is a modern port that uses advanced technology and digital systems to improve the efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness of its operations. Smart ports often use digital tools such as sensors, data analytics, augmented reality, big data, digital twins and automation to optimize the movement of cargo, reduce waste and emissions, and provide better services to stakeholders (which include shipping companies, customs authorities, and local communities). Smart ports may also include features such as renewable energy sources, electric charging stations (Onshore Power Supply), and smart infrastructure for logistics and transportation
A Spotlight on Hydrogen Fuel Cells
/in #DidYouKnow, DidYouKnow-MOST, Educational Approach, Issue 40 | Autum 2021, Maritime TransportOver the past decade hydrogen has really taken centre stage in the search for an alternative fuel for maritime transport. Different applications of the gas have been researched and trialled in various maritime scenarios. The most recent and most successful case in recent years, without a doubt, has been the development and implementation of hydrogen fuel cells. In this #DidYouKnow article we take a look at this technology and consider its impact on the maritime industry.
