Analysis of the Utilization of Shore Side Electricity in Reducing Exhaust Gas Emissions on KN Masalembo State Ships

Abstract

Marine transportation accounts for 3% of the global greenhouse gas effect. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) is committed to reducing the effects of greenhouse gases by 50% in 2050—Indonesia is a maritime country with 10.8% of the world's ship register. High traffic has an impact on increased gas emissions. The IMO has made a policy on the Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan. IMO recommends the use of Shore Side Electricity in reducing exhaust emissions, namely the use of electricity sources from land will reduce the operation of the ship's generator when berthing.

This SSE case study is on the State Ship KN Masalembo at the Tanjung Perak. Calculation of the impact of the use of SSE on the reduction of ship exhaust emissions. A descriptive quantitative method was used in this study.

Based on calculations, the power requirement at a voltage of 220 Volts is 95,028 Watts and 276,210 Watts for 380 volts. Fuel consumption efficiency using a harbour generator is 78.40%, and 85.14% when using an emergency generator, compared to auxiliary motors 1-2. The impact of reducing exhaust gas emissions per year reaches 1.8 million pollutants. The use of SSE is a solution for reducing exhaust emissions in the port area. Power plants using renewable energy sources are a recommendation to supporting SSE operations.
