Ships are significant sources of pollution, with one vessel emitting as much as 50 million cars annually, prompting new regulations for emission control and a shift towards shore-to-ship power to reduce reliance on diesel engines while in port. The transition to cleaner energy sources not only mitigates environmental impact but also presents business opportunities, particularly in Indian ports, where infrastructure for supplying electric power can be developed. Compliance with new international fuel standards and demand for cleaner operations are driving costs, emphasizing the need for cost-effective and compliant energy solutions.
