Research on the charging rules of shore power service charge in China

Abstract

Firstly, this paper defines the definition and attribute of shore power service charge, and combs the current situation of shore power service charge and electricity charge in China. At the same time, the paper analyses the cost of shore power service, electricity charge of the power supply department and the cost of ship's using fuel oil for self-generation, and makes a comprehensive comparison between the cost of ship's using shore power and the cost of ship's self-generation. Finally, according to the principle of ensuring that the cost of using shore power (shore power service charge plus electricity charge) is lower than the cost of self-generation for ships, the paper puts forward suggestions that the shore power service charge should be collected according to the power usage and the government should issue guidance prices.
