PODCAST: Unlocking automated charging in ports
In the latest Portside Perspective podcast we talk to Crijn Bouman, CEO and co-founder of Rocsys, to explore the transformative potential of hands-free charging in ports.
He highlights a growing global trend among ports, particularly in the West and key Asian hubs, towards decarbonisation and electrification, noting that while the industry is still early in the transition, momentum is undeniable.
Mr Bouman emphasises how such technology enhances operational efficiency and safety while solving practical issues like labour constraints and charging logistics.
The episode also delves into lessons learned from early deployments, including the importance of integrating site staff, minimising costly civil works through plug-and-play technology and enabling remote oversight with user-friendly interfaces.
This compelling discussion provides a forward-looking view into how ports, large and small, can capitalise on automation and electrification to future-proof their operations in an increasingly competitive landscape.
