| Abstract | Ports around the world are moving towards using electrified RTG cranes to reduce greenhouse gases and energy consumption compared to diesel RTG cranes. This paper introduces the electrified RTG crane network with energy storage and the simulation model that will allow us to assessment the benefits from developing a control strategy based on load forecasting in crane network. To increase peak reduction and energy saving, this paper investigates the peak demand in electrifed RTG cranes and explores the contribution of crane load forecasting within a control strategy in peak reduction.The model describes the use of the collected data from the Port of Felixstowe to operate the simulation models and confirm the simulation’s reliability. The analysis of the results shows that there might be benefit from developing an energy storage control strategy by using load forecasting output to reduce the peak demands. |
