Prospective deployment

Chennai
Port energy concept.

Urban port with automotive export volumes and air-quality pressure

Operator: Chennai Port Authority
Location: Chennai, Tamil Nadu
Port type: Major Port Authority
Concept status: Prospective deployment

01Strategic context

Why this port,
and why now.

A city-centre port handling containers and a significant automobile export trade, where road-freight emissions are a direct urban air-quality issue.

Cargo profile

Containers
Automobiles
Dry bulk

Possible use cases

Truck charging
Urban drayage charging with strict emissions drivers.
Commercial charging
Public-facing charging at the port interface.
Renewable integration
Constrained-footprint solar with storage.

Energy architecture

Storage-led peak management in a constrained urban network
Rooftop solar

02Charging zones

Proposed zones on one
electrical backbone.

Each zone serves a distinct duty cycle. Sharing a backbone and a management layer is what allows the flexible loads to protect the critical ones.
