Energy security is one of the key challenges ports face in their journey to net zero. As the 2022 international energy price spiked showed, external factors can cause operating costs to surge. Renewables have the benefit of being nationally or locally based, reducing reliance on global energy markets. Ports are ideally placed to develop their own renewable generating capacity. However, renewables are 'intermittent', in line with fluctuating daily and seasonal weather patterns. This calls for energy storage and microgrid management.

Key steps to achieve energy security:

1) Microgrid design and management
2) Energy monitoring and orchestration
3) Energy storage
4) Full site digital twin creation to connect digital and physical assets
