PSA
Mumbai has achieved a major milestone in its emissions reduction journey by
becoming India’s first 100% renewable powered container terminal on the
commissioning of its 7.8MW solar farm with O2 Power. The solar farm, which will be expanded to 10MW by June
2024, will provide over75% of PSA Mumbai’s electricity requirements1with
the remaining renewable power sourced from Maharashtra
State Electricity Distribution Company Limited (MSEDCL) and other providers.
The terminal’s CO2equivalent emissions will be reduced by a
projected 16,000 tonnes annually and more than 350,000 tonnes over its life.
O2 Power, a renewable energy platform in India owned by EQT Infrastructure and Temasek, has developed and will manage the solar farm in Beed, Maharashtra with an expansion facility in Motala, Maharashtra. The plants are connected to PSA Mumbai via existing MSEDCL infrastructure.
PSA Mumbai is targeting a 50% reduction in its
carbon emissions by 2030. Other major initiatives underway to achieve this
target include the large-scale electrification of its equipment fleet,
including the deployment of an all-electric Rubber-tyred Gantry Crane (RTGC)
fleet for its Phase 2 development. Electrification of all existing RTGCs in
Phase 1 is underway and is expected to be completedby 2027.
The upcoming launch by PSA BDP ofe-trucks in early 2024 will create
a zero-emission green transport corridor in Nhava Sheva linking terminals, CFS
and customer facilities.Combining renewable power from PSA
Mumbai with CFS and trucking expertise from PSA Ameya and PSA BDP India is a
unique marketplace solution and underscores PSA’s commitment to green
transportation initiatives.
PSA Mumbai CEO- Mr
Andy Lane commented on the milestone“We are delighted to commission our solar farm and with
the switch to 100% renewable power, achieve a significant reductionin our
emissions. Supply chain users want greener and more sustainable transportation
solutions to achieve emissions reduction targets: the successful completion of
this initiative and projects such as the soon-to-be-delivered e-trucks
underscores our commitment to meeting those requirements.We are very grateful
for Jawaharlal Nehru Port Authority’s (JNPA) support during this process and
are pleased to play our part towards JNPA's target of 60% usage of
renewable power under Maritime India Vision 2030. With the solar farm’s
expansion, we are also pleased to be growing our partnership with O2 Power.â€
“Our interaction with the PSA Mumbaiteam over the last few months
has been so mesmerisingand feels like our own extended family of O2 Power by complimenting
each other with various endeavors. We are proud to be partnering with the PSA
group and look forward to continued collaboration with PSA Mumbai for their
overall sustainability initiatives,†said Mr Kiran Kumar- Head of Open
Access O2 Power.
