Shandong Weifang Xiti the country's first "zero carbon port"
On October 15, Shandong Bohai Bay Port Group Weifang Port won the "Carbon neutral Evaluation Certificate" issued by China Classification Society Quality Certification Co., LTD., proving that Weifang Port has achieved "carbon neutral" within the scope of the port, marking the country's first "zero carbon port" built in Weifang. This is the latest achievement of Shandong Port to accelerate the comprehensive green and low-carbon transformation of the port, and provides the "Shandong Port plan" for the construction of the national "zero carbon port".
Shandong port Weifang Port is located in the south coast of Bohai Bay, the coastline is 5382 meters long, is an important support for the economic and social development of Weifang City and its surrounding areas and the development of harbor industry. Li Haibo, director of the Energy Saving and Low Carbon Research Office of the Water Transport Research Institute of the Ministry of Transport, believes that the overall scale of Weifang Port, moderate energy consumption, with rich Marine, wind, light and other resources, is a good test site for the construction of "zero carbon port".
In March this year, Shandong port Weifang Port issued a "zero carbon port" creation plan, and China Classification Society Quality Certification Co., Ltd. issued a committed carbon neutral certificate to Shandong Port Bohai Bay Port Group Weifang Port. In October, the port of Weifang in Shandong province completed the neutralization of total greenhouse gas emissions (9,010.62 tons of carbon dioxide equivalent). China Classification Society Quality Certification Co., Ltd. evaluated the quantification and offsetting process of greenhouse gas emissions generated during the production and operation stage of Weifang Port from June 10, 2024 to September 10, 2024 according to PAS2060:2014 Carbon Neutrality Certification Code. The evaluation results met the requirements of the evaluation criteria. Awarded Shandong port Weifang port carbon neutral evaluation certificate.
"As the first port in China to achieve carbon neutrality as a whole, Weifang Port has played an exemplary role in the national port industry and even the national transportation industry," said Wang Ruizhu, general manager of Shandong Company of China Classification Society Quality Certification Co., LTD.
New practice: wading out the win-win road of quality and efficiency improvement
The port is an important node of China's foreign trade, an important window for the construction of ecological civilization, and an important position for the realization of the "double carbon" goal. In the process of "zero carbon port" construction, Shandong port Weifang Port continues to promote the clean energy structure, and walks out of a win-win road of "carbon neutrality" and port quality and efficiency improvement.
-- Clean energy development of Juli Wind power. On September 30 this year, four 6.7MW fans in Weifang Port were successfully connected to the grid, becoming the first onshore distributed wind power project in Shandong Province to be connected to the grid for power generation. The annual available power generation exceeds 70 million KWh, which can meet the electricity consumption of the entire port area, and the redundant electricity can also be used by the grid for social use. It not only saves about 9.6 million yuan of electricity cost per year for Weifang Port, but also saves 21,000 tons of standard coal per year compared with conventional coal-fired thermal power units with the same power generation, reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 57,000 tons, reduces soot emissions by 1.5 tons, reduces other exhaust gases sulfur dioxide by 7.0 tons and nitrogen oxides by 10.5 tons, and has significant social and environmental benefits.
-- Focusing on the integrated development of ports and energy, we will actively promote the continuous enrichment of the types and scenarios of renewable energy applications in ports. In addition to the wind power project, Weifang Port continues to promote the construction of wind and solar hydrogen multi-energy complementary system, orderly promote the construction of photovoltaic power generation system in the logistics storage warehouse, storage warehouse and other areas, built and put into use 3.3MWp photovoltaic power station, the annual power generation can reach 3.6132 million kWh; As one of the sub-topics of the "Hydrogen into 10,000" project of the major science and technology demonstration project of the Ministry of Science and Technology, the designed daily hydrogenation capacity of Weifang Port Hydrogenation Station is 500kg, equipped with double hydrogen unloading column, double hydrogen refueling gun, 9m³ hydrogen storage cylinder group and a comprehensive station building, which can store 300kg compressed hydrogen every day, which can meet the hydrogen demand of 4 hydrogen fuel cell heavy trucks in the port area. Strive to promote the "green hydrogen production, transport, storage and use of the whole industrial chain" project application demonstration.
At present, Weifang Port has completed the initial construction of a multi-energy supply system, formed a zero-carbon energy structure of "landscape and storage integration", officially realized zero-carbon port 2.0(narrow zero-carbon port), and strives to take the lead in the industry to build a zero-carbon port 3.0 (broad zero-carbon port) characterized by "green and low-carbon development of the whole logistics chain". "Weifang Port first tried to build the country's first 'zero carbon port', which has a better guiding significance for other ports in the country to take the road of green and low-carbon." Li Haibo said.
New path: Smart green features throughout the port
The zero carbon construction of Weifang Port in Shandong province began with wind energy and light energy, but it is not only wind energy and light energy. Guided by the goal of "zero carbon port", Weifang Port promotes a number of projects in tandem, and the smart green characteristics run through the entire port.
-- Building a comprehensive energy and carbon smart management and control platform, and constantly improving low carbon pipe control capabilities. Refine the monitoring points of the established electric energy monitoring system, increase the online monitoring of water use, conduct comprehensive monitoring and intelligent analysis of port energy use, and improve the information level of carbon emission accounting, data management, and carbon emission reporting. The platform covers all energy use varieties, complete monitoring and visual visualization, and realize intelligent and efficient management of energy use and carbon emissions in the port.
-- Carry out automation and intelligent upgrading, and accelerate the automatic transformation of wharf operations. Accelerate the automation and intelligent transformation of 17# berth container operation in the middle operation area, promote 20#-21# through the fully automated transformation of bulk cargo berths, use 2 intelligent stackers to replace loaders and excavators, and use 10 intelligent mobile transport flat trucks (IMV) in the horizontal transportation link.
