With an important role to play in reducing the en­vironmental impact of global shipping, shore con­nection has received backing from eco-friendly organizations.

At the same time, discrepancies in frequency be­tween ship and shore are driving demand for more intelligent landside solutions.

Tianli’s onshore offering comprises transformers and frequency converters to synchronize shore­side power, voltage and frequency with those of the vessel’s onboard system. Also included are connecting cables and berth terminals with ca­pacity for several ships. The solutions are suitable for container terminals and city harbors, with power ratings to suit even the bulk ports.

They cover the entire chain from the substation receiving electricity from the local network to the power outlet at the dock. Furthermore, all major components can be accommodated within com­pact buildings or containers designed to blend into the surrounding environment.
