Enabling Shorepower Interoperability for Port of Rotterdam

GreenBee is supporting the Port of Rotterdam in building the digital and technical foundation needed to roll out shorepower across the port. Shorepower is an important step toward cleaner shipping, better air quality, and future ready port operations for both inland and seagoing vessels.

The Port of Rotterdam faces a clear challenge. Shorepower needs to be scaled up in a way that is safe, reliable and workable for everyone involved. At the same time, operators and regulators need clear insight into how the infrastructure is used and how it performs. GreenBee supports this transition by combining technical expertise with a practical understanding of how ports operate and how decisions are made. Within this project, GreenBee helps define the technical setup for shorepower installations. This includes the way systems communicate, how data is structured and how the infrastructure connects to existing port IT systems. We work with EV standards such as OCPP and OCPI and translate them into clear requirements for monitoring, supervision, and reporting applicable to shorepower. Safety, availability, and real time insight into connections and energy use are key points of attention. Together with port stakeholders, GreenBee supports the development of clear dashboards and data flows. These give asset managers and operators a straightforward view of what is happening in the field, while also providing decision makers with reliable information on usage and impact. This makes it easier to manage daily operations and to report on progress and results. Through this work, GreenBee helps create a scalable and interoperable shorepower ecosystem for the Port of Rotterdam. The result is a solid digital foundation that supports emission reduction goals, regulatory compliance and the long term sustainability ambitions of one of Europe’s most important ports.
