This workspace recomputes the Valencia shore-power demand curve in your browser from every port call in the model. Nothing is sent anywhere; settings and overrides stay in this browser.
How the curve is built
- Calls come from the ValenciaportPCS historic search (Jan 2021 to Nov 2026). Excluded: service craft, stays over 240 h or under 0.5 h, duplicates.
- PCS arrival is about 1 h before the ship is all-fast at the berth (1.3 h for cruise), checked against the cruise schedule. That offset is already applied to the start times.
- A ship connects a fixed delay after berthing and disconnects a fixed lead before departure (30 and 30 min by default).
- Each call draws a constant average kW from the category model (size bin by GT, TEU or DWT), shaped within the call by a profile (container reefer, ropax, cruise hotel, flat) that keeps the call's energy unchanged.
- Values are averages over each interval, timestamp = start of interval, local time Europe/Madrid. Partial first and last intervals count pro rata.
- Peak potential is the sum of each connected ship's peak kW, an upper bound for instantaneous demand. It is not the same as the interval maximum.
What is assumed
- Power values are literature-based (TNO 2025 R12590, IMO 4th GHG, ICCT 2017, EMSA), not metered at Valencia. Low to high spans about a factor of four.
- Full adoption: 100% of merchant calls connect. It is an upper bound.
- FuelEU / AFIR 2030 set: container, ropax and cruise above 5,000 GT; unknown GT counts as in scope.
- Phased: a deterministic share of FuelEU vessels (by a hash of the vessel key), 0% in 2026 to 100% in 2030. A selected vessel connects on every call.
- Current confirmed: vessels with operational OPS at a terminal with an operational connection. None exist today.
- Berth compatibility and connection limits are not applied yet (pass-through).
- Baseline port load is a constant placeholder. EALING quoted about 7 MW average and a 13 MW grid cap.
- Battery figure: smallest store that covers all demand above the cap when it recharges only from headroom below the cap. Power = largest shortfall. No losses.
Overrides
Vessel overrides are level 1 of the evidence waterfall. A kW override applies to all power levels, and peak kW scales with it. Ops status "absent" removes the vessel from every case except full adoption. Export them as registers/overrides.csv rows; exclusion is written as avg_kw = 0 with the reason prefixed "[exclude]".
