ICYMI: The ports are grappling with an energy infrastructure gap that's threatening its transition to #ZeroEmission technologies. Frequent power surges and outages are disrupting the operations of electric-powered cranes and cargo-handling equipment, posing a significant challenge to the 2030 diesel-free mandate. Despite substantial investments in #GreenTechnology, the port's current power supply cannot meet the increasing demand. Learn more about the critical need for reliable power infrastructure to support the port’s sustainable future in the article below by Paul Berger. #EnergyInfrastructure #SustainableShipping #Logistics
The Port of Los Angeles’s transition to green technology is on the blink. Terminal operators at the port say power surges and lulls are knocking out cranes and other cargo equipment just as container terminals are relying more on the electric grid to power their operations. The terminal operators are asking how the port expects to achieve a mandate to phase out diesel-powered machinery by 2030 when today’s power supply is so unreliable. And their frustrations highlight the fragility of U.S. infrastructure facilities, from ports and railroads to trucking operations, as they switch to zero-emission technologies.
