- Meanwhile, the Port System Authority of the Ligurian Sea
Western, which manages the ports of Genoa and Savona-Vado, has made
I note that I have submitted 20 projects to the Ministry of Transition
Ecological for the funding of the "Green Ports PNRR" project.
The body has specified that at the center of the design there is
the production and use of energy from photovoltaic panels for
the power supply of the port public lighting and the
supply of energy for sustainable mobility in the field
harbour. Specifically, in Savona it is planned to build
more photovoltaic systems managed by a "Port Grid"
integrated with storage systems, which will allow both to
manage and control electrical systems (smart-grid), both of
increase the sustainability of the port: energy
renewable produced will be used for power
of public lighting and charging stations for
operational electric vehicles of the AdSP. Also in Genoa it is expected the
construction of several photovoltaic systems managed by a
similar system of "Port Grid" evolved, to be realized
in the industrial and commercial port areas of Levante and Ponente.
In addition, it is planned to install an electrolyzer for
the production of green hydrogen, powered by the same plants
photovoltaic, to power hydrogen some new operating vehicles
of the Port System Authority. Finally, the
replacement of the AdSP fleet with 21 operational vehicles
totally electric and five powered by hydrogen. The authority
port has specified that green solutions have been identified
in close cooperation with central and local institutions, and
designed to be integrated with existing systems,
replicable and modular. In the next 60 days the appropriate
Commission appointed by the Ministry will evaluate the proposals
projects admitted to funding.
