Deltaport Shore Power Project November 17, 2016
Container Shore Power Projects • In 2015, federal government/ VFP A announced funding for installation of shore power at two terminals - Deltaport and Centerm • Project funding is approx. $14 million: $7 million from T ransport Canada’s Shore P ower T echnology for P orts Program and $7 million from VFP A • Working to make shore power connections available and incenting shipping lines to use shore power through harbour dues discounts 2
Rationale • Shipping line readiness: 2012 study suggested an increasing number of shore power equipped container vessels are expected to call at Port of Vancouver • Provisioning of shore power facilities recommended • Regulatory environment: shore power compliance is voluntary
Shore Power Locations Centerm Canada Place (Cruise) Deltaport
Key Items Needed • Funding agreement • Favorable rate structure from BC Hydro • Operating agreements • T erminal resources available and committed to project • Confirmed standard technology
Deltaport Third Berth Transformer yard Berth 1 Berth 3 HVSC substation Berth 2 1 2 Berth 3 • T wo HVSC pits to support port side berthing • BC Hydro 69 kV transmission service 6
Cables Connecting to Shore Power
High Voltage Shore Connection Pit Pit open Pit closed Note hinge and locking pin, in some installations the bull rail is on rollers
High Voltage Shore Connection Equipment Receptacle pit with junction box and connector plugs Removable cover to accommodate cable access from ship

Schedule
2015 Shore Power Capable Ship Calls Container term inal # of shore pow er capable calls Deltaport 44 Centerm 36 • Actual number of connections will depend on: • Configuration of land based equipment • Location and limitations of ship based equipment • Ship willingness to connect • Cost of connection • Availability of power from BC Hydro 14
Key Benefits • Reduces air emissions • Improves air quality for terminal employees and community • Reduces noise impact • Improves crane productivity if operations stopped due to vessel fumes and in-shore winds 15
Environmental Benefits
Noise Reduction – Shore Power Mid Frequency 500 to 2000 Hz • Auxiliary engines shut down while at berth • Remaining sources of noise may include pumps, ventilation, refrigeration units, air conditioning Low Frequency 40 to 160 Hz
Noise Reduction – Low Frequency on Background 85 Post Leq shows lower dB values due to Leq Pre Departure the A-Weighting applied, which Arrival 40Hz discounts the lower frequencies. 80 75 LAeq(dB) 70 65 60 Vessel Berth 1 Vessel Berth 2 55
