Decarbonizing the Port of Tarragona (Instal·lació d’OPS al moll de Balears)

The aim of the project is the implementation of an OPS system (Onshore Power Supply) on the Balearic Wharf of the Port of Tarragona. This infrastructure will allow the electrical connection of cruise ships while they are docked, so it will not be necessary for their auxiliary generators to operate during their stay, significantly reducing pollutant emissions and noisein the port environment.

The OPS system on the Balearic Islands wharf is expected to have an estimated maximum capacity of 20MVA. Initially, the installation will operate with 8MVA, being scalable up to 20MVA in a second phase. The connection to the cruise ships will be made at medium voltage (either at 6.6kV or 11kV, depending on the requirements of the ship) and with a frequency of 50Hz or 60Hz, using two modular lines and connection points, using a cable management system with e-chain technology.

The planned voltage supply for ships will be flexible and will meet IEC/ISO/IEEE 80005-1 standards.
