Driven by repeated disruptions to Ukraine\u2019s energy infrastructure, the US\u2013Dutch consortium will design and build a grid-connected microgrid enabling the port to operate autonomously during outages while optimising costs through national grid integration.<\/p>\n
\u201dWith this project, QuinteQ and partners will combine and contribute their expertise and world-leading solutions to build a more resilient Ukraine for near and long-term energy needs,\u201d said Paul Vosbeek, CEO & founder at QuinteQ Energy.<\/p>\n
\u201dAt the same time, this project is strategic to QuinteQ\u2019s international port market development and puts our unique flywheel solution on the map as a key-enabler for ports across the globe to optimise their power infrastructure and achieve their electrification targets.\u201d<\/p>\n
Rebuilding infrastructure<\/strong><\/p>\n Ukrainian ports play a critical role in both civilian and military logistics, but sustained attacks on power infrastructure have undermined operational continuity.<\/p>\n The Odesa port complex has relied heavily on diesel and gas generators to manage outages, creating cost, efficiency and emissions challenges across port operations.<\/p>\n This planned microgrid will combine decentralised generation, advanced energy storage and island-mode capability, enabling uninterrupted operations even during grid failures.<\/p>\n It will also support the future integration of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar.<\/p>\n LMC and QuinteQ will work with Dutch solution providers, local Ukrainian partners, terminal operators and end-users to tailor the system to operational requirements, prioritising uptime and resilience under conflict conditions.<\/p>\n Advanced planning discussions are already under way to ensure alignment with on-the-ground needs in Odesa.<\/p>\n The project is scheduled to commence in 2026, with installations targeted for completion by 2027.<\/p>\n Supported by the Dutch government through an Industrial Participation Agreement, the initiative aims to enhance port energy resilience while laying foundations for modern, low-emission port operations in Ukraine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Lockheed Martin and QuinteQ Energy\u00a0will deploy a decentralised microgrid at the Port of Odesa to strengthen port electrification, energy resilience and continuity of port operations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":6052,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[46,8],"tags":[2369,1848,637,2447,48],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-6051","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-energy-technology-greenport","category-projects-initiatives-greenport","tag-energy-resilience","tag-microgrids","tag-port-electrification","tag-port-of-odesa","tag-shorepower-electrification"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6051","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6051"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6051\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6053,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6051\/revisions\/6053"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6052"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6051"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6051"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6051"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=6051"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
