How much energy does a container ship generator consume?

This study investigated the real-time energy consumption and air pollutant (PM 10, PM 2.5, NO x, SO x, CO, and HC) emissions from a container ship’s generator during transpacific voyages. The transpacific crossing segments in the high seas had the highest energy consumption (2528 ± 523 kWh) and air emissions (70 kg h −1).

How much energy does a container ship use?

Similarly, the hourly energy consumption for a modern standard container ship with about 24,000 TEU, of which about 2600 TEU would amount to 11.4 MWh. The estimated air emission rate would be 321 kg h −1, amounting to 100 tons of the six pollutants emitted during the transpacific crossing (TPC′-1) segment.

What is a containerized system?
