Sandnes Havn Embraces BluEco® Shore Power Solution 

Challenges 

• Transition Sandnes Havn toward a zero-emission harbor, aligning with environmental sustainability goals. 

• Enable docked vessels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, noise, and vibrations by minimizing reliance on diesel engines. 

• Implement a flexible and scalable shore power system tailored to the unique needs of the port. 

Solutions 

• BluEco® Shore Power System: A modular and distributed architecture customized to meet Sandnes Havn’s specific requirements. 

• Comprehensive Delivery: Blueday Technology managed the design, engineering, supply, installation, and commissioning of the shore power system. 

• Shore-to-Ship Power: Enabled vessels to draw electricity from the local grid, supporting onboard systems like ventilation and cooling while docked. 

Results 

• Significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, noise pollution, and vibrations, enhancing the environmental quality for the port and its surroundings. 

• Enhanced maintenance opportunities for docked vessels, as engines remain off during power supply from the local grid. 

• Positioned Sandnes Havn as a forward-thinking, sustainable zero-emission harbor, contributing to Norway’s environmental goals.
