Landscape study

Cochin
Port energy concept.

Container and cruise port in a strong state EV policy environment

Operator: Cochin Port Authority
Location: Willingdon Island, Kochi, Kerala
Port type: Major Port Authority
Concept status: Landscape study

01Strategic context

Why this port,
and why now.

A diversified port with container, cruise and bunkering activity, operating in a state with active electric mobility policy and a favourable renewable environment.

Cargo profile

Containers
Liquid bulk
Cruise
Bunkering

Possible use cases

Passenger charging
Cruise terminal and visitor charging.
Commercial charging
Third-party fleet and taxi charging near terminal access.
Renewable integration
Solar with storage supporting terminal and charging load.

Energy architecture

Canopy solar
Storage buffering
Shore-power interface pathway

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.

Terminal visitor charging
02
Commercial fast charging
03
Operational fleet charging
