Abstract
Due to environmental considerations, ships are being required to turn off their generators while berthing and receive electric power from the shore. This method of electrical connection of ships to ports during berthing is called cold ironing. Cold ironing can significantly contribute to air quality improvement by mitigating harbours’ CO2, nitrogen oxygen and several harmful emissions. This study investigates the needs and assess the first steps of cold ironing implementation in the Port of Heraklion, while also discussing the relative energy mix of the island.
