Electrification from a port's perspective

26 Jun 2025
Conference Room One
Day Three - Port electrification
The Port of San Diego leads the way in the US with an electric tug boat, harbor patrol boats and a ferry that is in the works. On land, the port has shore power for cruise and container ships and has auto-carriers upcoming. These successes and plans face numerous challenges, including working with regulators, financing and developing new infrastructure, working with shippers to ensure good timing and working with utilities to get electricity at the right time and at a reasonable cost.
