Ports & Wharves
Australian ports face pressure to reduce emissions while maintaining 24/7 operational efficiency. Grid Rig mobile energy storage and charging solutions support port electrification with deployable infrastructure for terminal equipment charging, grid stabilisation, and shore power applications.
Port Electrification and Terminal Charging Solutions
The Challenge: Port Electrification at Scale
Port operations demand charging infrastructure that can support heavy-duty electric equipment in harsh saltwater environments while maintaining continuous 24/7 operations and managing massive power requirements across sprawling terminal facilities.
Grid Capacity Constraints
Ports draw substantial power for crane operations, refrigerated containers, and terminal lighting. Adding fleet charging loads often exceeds existing grid connections. Utility upgrades require years of planning and significant capital investment. Ports need charging solutions that work within current grid capacity.
Continuous Operations
Container terminals operate around the clock with tight vessel schedules. Infrastructure installation that disrupts operations costs money and delays shipping. Electric terminal tractors, reach stackers, and yard equipment need charging infrastructure that deploys without shutting down active terminal areas.
The Solution: Mobile Port Charging Infrastructure
Peak Shaving and Grid Stabilisation
Grid Rig units store energy during off-peak periods and release it during high-demand windows. Reduce peak grid draw by charging batteries overnight and powering vehicle charging during operational peaks. The GR 2M's 2MWh capacity provides significant load shifting capability for terminal operations.
Flexible Terminal Deployment
Position charging capacity at container yards, maintenance areas, or truck marshalling zones. Relocate units as terminal layouts evolve. Provide charging at temporary or overflow areas without permanent infrastructure. Grid Rig adapts to port operations rather than constraining them.
Why Grid Rig for Port Operations?
Heavy Equipment Capability
Port equipment demands serious charging capacity. The GR 2M delivers six charging guns with 200kW output each, supporting the heavy battery packs in terminal tractors and cargo handling equipment. This isn't consumer-grade charging infrastructure adapted for industrial use. It's purpose-built for heavy equipment operations.
Shore Power Applications
Beyond vehicle charging, Grid Rig units provide power to vessels at berth. Replace ship generator operation with clean shore power, reducing emissions and noise in port. Mobile deployment means shore power capacity positions where vessels actually dock, not just where fixed infrastructure exists.
